  • Abstract
    To embark upon the experiments on thermonuclear ignition achievement at magnetic implosion of magnetized plasma in the system MAGO/MTF, it is necessary to have pure enough DT plasma heated to 0.3 keV-0.4 keV temperature. The study of the entire set of the experiments indicates that a major obstacle to solution of this problem is the danger of appearance of insulator vapors in DT plasma. The paper uses 2D computations to demonstrate the feasibility to solve the problem.
