Abstrakt: A novel model to infer the hot-core temperature–density profiles in cryogenic deuterium capsule implosions is presented. The profiles are consistent with the measured primary deuterium–deuterium and secondary deuterium–tritium yields, the neutron-averaged ion temperature, and the x-ray image at peak neutron production. The electron pressure and the areal density of a neutron-producing region were inferred to be 2.7±0.4 Gbar and ∼10 mg/cm2, respectively. This new model introduces a more accurate hot-core characterization from previous techniques. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
