Experimental results showing significant reductions from classical in the Rayleigh-Taylor
instability growth rate due to high pressure effective lattice viscosity are presented. Using a …

The Rayleigh–Taylor (RT) instability, which occurs when a lower-density fluid accelerates a
higher-density layer, is common in nature. At an ablation front a sharp reduction in the …

We present a simple analytic model for ablative stablization of the Rayleigh-Taylor
instability. In this model the effect of ablation is to move the peak of the perturbations to the …

We are studying material strength at high pressures (> 1 Mbar) and high strain rates (106-
108 sec-1) in Ta using the Omega laser. The Ta sample is maintained well below the melt …

We present the first absolute, two-dimensionally resolved measurements of areal mass
density of laser-driven ablatively accelerated foils, which show the Rayleigh-Taylor …

The evolution of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in a compressible medium has been
investigated both at an accelerating embedded interface and at the ablation front in …

The Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instability is an important factor in bounding the performance
envelope of inertial confinement fusion targets. This paper describes an experiment for …

It has been recognized for many years that the most significant limitation of inertial
confinement fusion (ICF) is the Rayleigh–Taylor (RT) instability. It limits the distance an …

It is demonstrated that the non-linear bubble growth in Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) unstable laser
targets is quasi-static and obeys a gt 2 law. Smoothing mechanisms acting on the spikes …
