Abstract
Summary form only given. The lack of high areal density (/spl rho/R) is augmented by an increased field times radius product (BR) for magnetized target fusion (MTF) targets. It has been shown that for BR>1 Tm the energy deposition in the target is substantially increased over the zero field value. However, the increase is dependent not only on field geometry, but also on the field gradients. Results for a static azimuthal field having various gradients is presented.
