Ryzhkov Bauman Moscow State Technical University, 5 Second Bauman str., Moscow, 105005, Russia E-mail: ryzhkov@power.bmstu.ru Magneto-inertial concept to a fusion combines the advantages of magnetic and inertial confinement fusions and provides low-cost simple fusion schemes. <...> Interest in research of magneto-inertial fusion (MIF) has recently been stimulated by (a) laser-drive magnetic flux compression experiments, (b) the approach to a high (beta is the ratio of plasma pressure to external magnetic pressure) magnetic systems. <...> In our report we propose cusp configuration for the seeded magnetic field in laser driven MIF. <...> Megagauss magnetic field generation in laser-driven plasma compression is studied. <...> Magnetic field amplification during spherical laser implosion in such scheme may achieve > 1000. <...> PACS: 52.55.Lf, 52.38.Fz, 52.25.Xz Keywords: magneto-inertial fusion, high energy density plasma, megagauss magnetic field, antiprobkotron, spherical implosion, cusp configuration, laser-driven compression. <...> Разработана модель на основе магнитной системы удержания плазмы — антипробкотрон с инерциальным сжатием мишени лазерным драйвером. <...>
