Scientific paper

We are pursuing experiments on the Nova laser to examine the effects on Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) and Richtmyer-Meshkov (RM) instability growth under a variety of conditions including 2D versus 3D perturbation shape, at an ablation front versus at an embedded interface, multimode versus single mode, planar versus convergent geometry, and solid versus the liquid state. These experiments are motivated by issues relevant to inertial confinement fusion (ICF), high energy density physics (HEDP), and astrophysics (in particular, supernova hydrodynamics). An overview will be given outlining recent results in each of these areas.
