Effects of beryllium mixing on α-heating in hot dense deuterium-tritium plasmas

This dataset comprises calculation results for the energy partition fractions and the ranges of α particles during α‑heating in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) deuterium-tritium (DT) plasmas mixed with beryllium (Be) impurities. Calculations were performed for degrees of mixing (Be-to-DT ion number ratio) of 0.001, 0.01, and 0.05, at two mixture densities: 4.15 g/cm3 and 415.0 g/cm3. In this work, the electron temperature is assumed equal to the ion temperature, varying from 0.1 keV to 100.0 keV. The partial density of each component in the mixture was determined based on the average atom model under conditions of thermodynamic equilibrium. The nuclear and electronic stopping powers for the Be plasma were calculated using the binary-collision model based on an average atom potential (He & Wang, 2015) and the quantum dielectric function modified to introduce projectile recoil effects (Arista & Brandt, 1981), respectively. The stopping powers for the DT plasma were provided by the quantum dielectric model that considers the polarization effects of a two-component plasma and projectile recoil effects (He et al., 2018). This dataset contains 17 CSV files. Among them, files named eta_A_R_x represent the energy partition fraction of component A in a mixture with a degree of mixing of x. Files named eta_i_pure_A and eta_e_pure_A represent the ion and electron energy partition fractions in pure A plasma, respectively. Files named range_R_x represent the range of α particles in a mixture with a degree of mixing of x. The file range_pure_DT gives the range of α particles in pure DT plasma, with all ranges expressed in micrometers. For all files, rows correspond to different densities in g/cm3, and columns correspond to different temperatures in keV. This dataset can provide important references for the design of ICF targets.
