Coulomb explosion of nanodroplets drives the conversion of laser energy to nucle

Theoretical-computational studies of table-top laser-driven nuclear fusion of high-energy (up to 15 MeV) deuterons with 7Li, 6Li, and D nuclei demonstrate the attainment of high fusion yields within a source-target reaction design. This constitutes a source of Coulomb-exploding deuterium nanodroplet
