Radiative shocking and acceleration of polycrystalline slabs for investigation of ablative Rayleigh-Taylor instability triggered by ablator microstructure

It is vital to identify and control all perturbation sources that could trigger ablative Rayleigh-Taylor instability One obvious perturbation 'seed' is surface roughness computed perturbation growth, validated by experiments - Specification for allowable roughness of NIF ignition capsule' is based on But what about infernal microstructure of shell materials? - Beryllium shells are composed of individual crystalline grains with - Polymer shells are composed of long molecular chains that might 'stack like an isotropic elastic/plastic properties logs' with a preferred orientation What happens when shock waves transit anisotropic material?

Evidence for a Bubble-Competition Regime in Indirectly Driven Ablative Rayleigh-Taylor Instability Experiments on the NIF

Journal Article Martinez, D. A. ; Smalyuk, V. A. ; Kane, J. O. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

In this paper, we investigate on the National Ignition Facility the ablative Rayleigh-Taylor instability in the transition from weakly nonlinear to highly nonlinear regimes. A planar plastic package with preimposed two-dimensional broadband modulations is accelerated for up to 12 ns by the x-ray drive of a gas-filled Au radiation cavity with a radiative temperature plateau at 175 eV. This extended tailored drive allows a distance traveled in excess of 1 mm for a 130 μm thick foil. Measurements of the modulation optical density performed by x-ray radiography show that a bubble-merger regime for the Rayleigh-Taylor instability at an ablation frontmore »« less

Simulation of the Rayleigh--Taylor instability in colliding, ablatively driven laser foils

Journal Article Dahlburg, J P ; Gardner, J H ; Emery, M H - Physics of Fluids B; (United States)

This paper reports results from a series of numerical simulations of a pair of independently accelerated rectilinear foils in the presence of the ablative Rayleigh--Taylor (RT) instability on the laser-side surfaces. The foil thickness and laser intensity are chosen to be in the range relevant to high-gain inertial fusion pellets, with 80 {mu}m thick plastic (CH) foils accelerated toward each other from a separation distance of 650 {mu}m by a 1/4 {mu}m laser beam with an intensity of 3{times}10{sup 14} W/cm{sup 2}.

From ICF to laboratory astrophysics: ablative and classical Rayleigh-Taylor Instability experiments in turbulent-like regimes

Journal Article Casner, A. ; Mailliet, C. ; Rigon, G. ; ... - Nuclear Fusion

Rayleigh–Taylor instability (RTI) occurs whenever fluids of different densities are accelerated against the density gradient, as is the case for the target ablator in ICF implosions. The advent of megajoule class lasers, like the National Ignition Facility (NIF) or Laser Mégajoule, offers novel opportunities to study turbulent mixing flows in high energy density plasmas for fundamental hydrodynamics or laboratory astrophysics experiments. Here, we review different RTI experiments, performed either at the ablation front or at a classical embedded interface. A two-dimensional bubble-merger, bubble-competition regime was evidenced for the first time at the ablation front in indirect-drive on the NIF thanksmore »« less
