Structure of cylindrical liners compressing a magnetized D-T plasma to ignition

It has been suggested on several occasions that a fast cylindrical liner (vL ≥ 107 cm/s) can compress a D-T plasma to volume or a spark ignition. Such a compression depends critically on the liner structure. We shall analyze this structure, first using a simple, heuristic model and subsequently comp...
