Scientific paper

Results of the first spherically diverging, hydrodynamically unstable laboratory experiments of relevance to supernovae are reported. The experiments are accomplished by using laser radiation to explode a hemispherical capsule, having a perturbed outer surface, which is embedded within a volume of low-density foam. The evolution of the experiment, like that of a supernova, is well described by the Euler equations. Two-dimensional simulations were performed both by using a radiation-hydrodynamics code and by using a pure hydrodynamics code with front tracking. The comparison with the data will be discussed.
