OSTI ID:5973677
Experimental results on the compression of glass shell targets with an aspect ratio R/..delta..R = 150--250 in the DEL'FIN-1 laser-fusion device are reported. The absorbed laser energy was E = 0.3--0.5 kJ. The average shell velocity toward the center of the target was found to be C = 160 km/s, and the maximum compression was V/sub 0//V/sub f/ = 3.5 x 10/sup 3/.
