EMPIRE Simulations of the July 2020 photoelectron driven cavity B-Dot experiments at the National Ignition Facility
- Sandia National Laboratories (SNL), Albuquerque, NM, and Livermore, CA (United States)
Simulations of several of the end-irradiated cylindrical photoelectron driven cavity experiments (also known as B-Dot cavities) that were fielded during the July 1 through 2, 2020 shot series at the National Ignition Facility are presented in this report with comparisons to experimental measurements. All cavity B-Dots fielded on the second, third, fourth, fifth and seventh shots were simulated using coupled Integrated Tiger Series (ITS) Monte Carlo transport codes and the Electromagnetic Plasmas in Realistic Environments (EMPIRE) electromagnetic particle-in-cell code.
