The injection and mixing of contaminant mass into the fuel in inertial confinement fusion ICF implosions is a primary factor preventing ignition. ICF experiments have recently achieved an alpha-heating regime, in which fusion self-heating is the dominant source of yield, by reducing the susceptibility of implosions to instabilities that inject this mass. We report the results of unique separated reactants implosion experiments studying pre-mixed contaminant as well as detailed high-resolution three-dimensional simulations that are in good agreement with experiments. At conditions relevant to mixing regions in high-yield implosions, we observe persistent chunks of contaminant that do not achieve thermal equilibrium with the fuel throughout the burn phase. The assumption of thermal equilibrium is made in nearly all computational ICF modeling and methods used to infer levels of contaminant from experiments. We estimate that these methods may underestimate the amount of contaminant by a factor of two or more.

Schmitt wrote extensively about the effective wielding of political power. A conservative [4] [5] theorist, he is noted as a critic of parliamentary democracy, liberalism, and cosmopolitanism, [6] and his work has been a major influence on subsequent political theory, legal theory, continental philosophy, and political theology , but its value and significance are controversial, mainly due to his intellectual support for and active involvement with Nazism. According to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy , "Schmitt was an acute observer and analyst of the weaknesses of liberal constitutionalism and liberal cosmopolitanism. But there can be little doubt that his preferred cure turned out to be infinitely worse than the disease.

Since the election, President Trump has achieved unparalleled dominance over the Republican Party. He has also given his party a central role in his reelection campaign and invested heavily in its organizational capacities. This dual approach to party leadership — domination paired with organizational investment — bears a strong resemblance to the way every Republican president since Eisenhower interacted with his party, different only in degree. Previous Republican presidents dominated and invested in their party for the explicit purpose of building a new majority in American politics.
