Dry wall chamber issues for the SOMBRERO laser fusion power plant

A reassessment of the SOMBRERO laser driven fusion power plant that was designed in 1990–91 has been conducted. New information and analysis has confirmed most of the original design decisions except that the tritium inventory in the blanket may be larger than originally calculated. Possible methods of lowering the tritium inventory are described along with a discussion of the critical issues that still remain 10 years after the original design was completed.
