Direct-drive shock-ignition for the Laser MégaJoule

We present a review of direct-drive shock ignition studies done as an alternative for the Laser MégaJoule (LMJ). One and two dimensional systematic analyses of HiPER-like shock-ignited target designs are performed for the fuel assembly irradiation uniformity using the whole LMJ configuration or a pa...
