Scientific paper

Our experiments study mechanisms that affect the evolution of supernovae, supernova remnants, and related systems. These experiments are designed to be well scaled from astrophysical systems to the laboratory. This overview of our work will highlight our most recent results. Our work is motivated by the specific fact that numerical simulations have proven unable to reproduce certain aspects of astrophysical observations, and by the general need to provide experimental tests of modeling of hydrodynamic and radiation-hydrodynamic systems. The experiments use the Omega Laser at the Lab. for Laser Energetics, Univ. of Rochester. We have recently explored the comparison of 2D and 3D systems, the comparison of single mode and multimode systems, and the production and diagnosis of a radiative-precursor shock.
