TL;DR: The first 96 and 192 beam vacuum Hohlraum target experiments have been fielded at the National Ignition Facility demonstrating radiation temperatures up to 340 eV and fluxes of 20 TW/sr as viewed by DANTE representing an ∼20 times flux increase over NOVA/Omega scale HohlRAums, and it is concluded that the 30±10% higher than expected radiation fluxes are attributable to differences in physics of the larger Hohlbraums.

TL;DR: The first soft x-ray radiation flux measurements from hohlraums using both a 96 and a 192 beam configuration at the National Ignition Facility have shown high xray conversion efficiencies of ∼85-90% as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the hohlraum radiation temperature and symmetry required for ignition-scale inertial confinement fusion capsule implosions, and demonstrate that these hohlrasums absorb 87% to 91% of the incident laser power, resulting in peak radiation temperatures of T(RAD)=300 eV.
