Control of laser-plasma instabilities (LPI) is critical for inertial fusion. Future stockpile stewardship experiments on the NIF will require increased fusion yield (up to 10 MJ), which will require higher laser energy and intensity and will have a higher LPI risk. To be successful, we need to understand the nonlinear behavior of LPI and develop an improved capability for modeling and mitigating LPI in ICF experiments.
