Kelvin-Helmholtz Experiment
- Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), Livermore, CA (United States)
Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) growth experiment was performed using a platform successfully developed in earlier OMEGA experiments [1-3]. Figure 1 shows target schematic, which consists of a plastic ablator and a shock tube. In the shock tube the interface between low-density foam and high-density plastic was either flat or had pre imposed sinusoidal modulation at a wavelength of 400 μm and amplitude of 30 μm, as in previous experiments.
