Abstract Rayleigh–Taylor (RT) and Richtmyer–Meshkov (RM) instabilities are well-known
pathways towards turbulent mixing layers, in many cases characterized by significant mass …

We review the theoretical developments in the field of Rayleigh–Taylor instabilities and
turbulent mixing, discuss what is known and what is not known about the phenomenon, and …

A theoretical framework to study linear and nonlinear Richtmyer–Meshkov instability (RMI) is
presented. This instability typically develops when an incident shock crosses a corrugated …

High-fidelity experiments of Richtmyer–Meshkov instability on a single-mode air/interface
are carried out at weak shock conditions. The soap-film technique is extended to create …

A turbulence model is developed to described the self-similar growth of the Rayleigh-Taylor
(RT) and Richtmyer-Meshkov (RM) instabilities. The model describes the dominant eddies in …

The nonlinear evolution of the Richtmyer–Meshkov (RM) instability is investigated using
numerical simulations with the FLASH code in two dimensions. The purpose of the …

An analytical model for the linear Richtmyer-Meshkov instability in solids under conditions of
high-energy density is presented, in order to describe the evolution of small perturbations at …

In inertial confinement fusion (ICF), the possibility of ignition or high energy gain is largely
determined by our ability to control the Rayleigh–Taylor (RT) instability growth in the target …

We present an analytical model for the Rayleigh-Taylor instability that allows for an
approximate but still very accurate and appealing description of the instability physics in the …

We elucidate the effect of the secondary baroclinic vorticity (SBV) on the Richtmyer–
Meshkov instability (RMI) accelerated by a weak incident shock and develop a vortex-based …
