Generalized graph foundation models as versatile data-driven digital twins for complex technological systems

Benjamin G. Pierce, Hein Htet Aung, Thomas G. Ciardi, Kristen J. Hernandez et autres

Digital twins are comprised of computational models that mimic the 'as built' characteristics of devices, systems, and networks of systems whose performance in the real world warrants quantitative and critical assessment.The literature on constructing digital twins is historically focused around task-specific, physics-based …

Predicting fusion ignition at the National Ignition Facility with physics-informed deep learning

B. K. Spears, Scott T. Brandon, D. T. Casey, J. E. Field et autres

An inertial confinement fusion experiment, carried out at the National Ignition Facility, has achieved ignition by generating fusion energy exceeding the laser energy that drove the experiment. Prior to the experiment, a generative machine learning model that combines radiation hydrodynamics simulations, deep …

Present understanding of ignition and gain using indirect-drive inertial confinement fusion target designs on the U.S. National Ignition Facility

O. A. Hurricane, Anthony Allen, B. Bachmann, K. L. Baker et autres

Abstract For many decades, the running joke in fusion research has been that ‘fusion’ is thirty years away and always will be. Yet, these past few years we find ourselves in a position where we can now talk about the milestones of …

Data-driven prediction of scaling and ignition of inertial confinement fusion experiments

Jim Gaffney, Kelli Humbird, A. L. Kritcher, Michael Kruse et autres

Recent advances in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) at the National Ignition Facility (NIF), including ignition and energy gain, are enabled by a close coupling between experiments and high-fidelity simulations. Neither simulations nor experiments can fully constrain the behavior of ICF implosions on …

Assembly of high-Areal-Density Deuterium-Tritium fuel from indirectly driven cryogenic implosions

A. J. Mackinnon, John L. Kline, S. N. Dixit, S. Glenzer et autres

The National Ignition Facility has been used to compress deuterium-tritium to an average areal density of ∼1.0±0.1gcm -2, which is 67% of the ignition requirement. These conditions were obtained using 192 laser beams with total energy of 1-1.6 MJ and peak power …

Correlations between asymmetric compression, burn amplification, and hot-spot velocities in inertial confinement fusion implosions

R. Nora, N. Birge, D. T. Casey, C. R. Danly et autres

This manuscript examines the correlations between the hot-spot velocity (an observable signature of residual kinetic energy), low-mode implosion asymmetries, and burn amplification in inertial confinement fusion implosions on the National Ignition Facility (NIF). Using a combination of two-dimensional axis-symmetric and three-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamic …
