Abstract
Summary form only given. For a dozen years, the fusion reaction rate in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) capsules has been determined by monitoring the production rate of fusion neutrons. Future high-yield targets producing >10 15 neutrons should allow reaction rates to be measured with γ rays produced in deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion. Using γ rays makes the measurement independent of target-to-detector distance, but the low branching ratio for γ-ray production (
