Three-Dimensional Monte Carlo Simulation of Fusion Particle Transport and Its Imaging in Inertial Confinement Fusion

Abstract
A three-dimensional Monte Carlo simulation code is developed to describe the transport of fusion-produced particles in inertially-confined fusion plasmas. Simulation results on the energy distribution, spatial image and secondary activation reaction are obtained. The results show that limitations exist to diagnostic approaches such as particle imaging, and thus unfolding procedures such as Monte Carlo simulation are required.
