Procedure and system for inertial confinement fusion reactions

摘要

A system for applying synchronous X-ray pulses to objective fusion material by inertial confinement, comprising: a) an objective central chamber (10) for receiving the objective fusion material in the form of an objective fusion granule (22) in a manner spherical; wherein the objective camera (10) is connected by a camera wall; b) a plurality of energy actuators (12) disposed around the outside of the target chamber (10) in symmetrical pairs around said melting target granule (22) and arranged in a three-dimensional symmetrical direct drive configuration around said objective fusion granule 22); c) means for controlling the plurality of energy actuators to: generate X-ray pulses (60) outside the chamber wall, emit the X-ray pulses (60) generated within the target chamber (10) and apply the X-ray pulses (60) emitted as synchronous X-ray pulses combined directly into the target fusion granule (22) in the target chamber (10), in which each of the synchronous X-ray pulses includes a ray pulse X of each of the energy actuators (12); and d) a plurality of means for extracting the energy of the fusion reaction released from the target fusion granule, comprising: i) means (14) for extracting high voltage DC energy (48) from the fusion plasma involving the granule fusion objective (22); and ii) means (20) for extracting thermal energy from the target chamber (10); e) each of the plurality of energy actuators comprising an X-ray source, in which each X-ray source comprises: i) a cylindrical triode electron tube (12), in which each electron tube includes a hollow central anode (64) along a central axis of the tube (12), in which each electron tube includes a grid (66) and a radially spaced cathode (68) of the anode; ii) in which the cathode (68) and the grid (66) form a progressive wave electron cannon that produces a radially symmetrical progressive wave (62) of ground potential in transverse electromagnetic mode when the grid is grounded to through a phase matching network (134, 136), said wave propagating along a length of the progressive wave electron cannon at the speed of the light in a vacuum, said wave causing an electron beam to flow from the cathode (68) to the anode (64) so that it sweeps along the anode (64) at the speed of the empty light, said wave having an energy capable of causing the electrons to penetrate a wall of the anode (64 ) and cause an area of both braking radiation and electrons, and sweeping said area along an internal hollow space of the anode (64) at the speed of light in a vacuum; iii) in which the internal hollow space is filled with a laser medium that is completely ionized by the swept area; and iv) in which the energy of the swept zone is pumped linearly by at least the energy contained in the distributed interelectrode capacitance of the cathode (68) and the grid (66).
