We describe RAGE, the'radiation adaptive grid Eulerian'radiation-hydrodynamics code,
including its data structures, its parallelization strategy and performance, its hydrodynamic …

We have measured the production of hv≈ 4.7 keV x‐rays from low‐density Ti‐doped
aerogel (ρ≈ 3 mg/cc) targets at the OMEGA laser facility (University of Rochester), with the …

The first hydrodynamic experiments were performed on the National Ignition Facility. A
supersonic jet was formed via the interaction of a laser driven shock (∼ 40 M bar) with 2D …

We demonstrate a methodology for diagnosing the multiscale dynamics and energy transfer
in complex HED flows with realistic driving and boundary conditions. The approach …

Supersonic fluid flow and the interaction of strong shock waves to produce jets of material
are ubiquitous features of inertial confinement fusion ICF, astrophysics, and other fields of …

A very large area (7.5 mm 2) laser-driven x-ray backlighter, termed the Big Area BackLighter
(BABL) has been developed for the National Ignition Facility (NIF) to support high energy …

The notion of using a narrow bore fill tube to charge an ignition capsule in situ with
deuterium-tritium (DT) fuel is very attractive because it eliminates the need for cryogenic …

The application of x-ray sources to imaging of dense objects is standard technique. The
quality of the x-ray image depends both on the x-ray source wavelength and on the flux. To …

We have performed experiments with planar targets on the OMEGA laser facility at the
University of Rochester. These experiments investigated the scaling of x-ray yield and …

The response of a shock front to small preshock nonuniformities of density, pressure, and
velocity is studied theoretically and numerically. These preshock nonuniformities emulate …
