摘要
Fast ignition (FI) is a novel approach to inertial confinement fusion, which has the potential for higher energy gain at lower overall driver energy and cost. This paper is a brief review of basic FI concepts and issues, with a particular emphasis on FI with laser-generated proton beams. General requirements for the DT fuel and the ignitor (particle beam) as well as for the laser drivers are discussed. Key issues related to proton FI are considered and selected results of experimental and numerical studies are described. A progress in development of laser facilities for FI research and prospects for FI experiments are outlined.
