Introduction

The classic work by Lawson [J. D. Lawson, Proc. Phys. Soc. London Sect. B 70 , 6 (1957)] has been used as an inspiration to develop a more detailed analysis of ignition and burning-plasmas. The analysis is based on a two-fluid one-dimensional model. Details on the ignition analysis and on the burning-plasma results are contained in the following pages:
