Physical pictures for high energy density HED plasmas rely on models of the plasma
properties. For example, the inner structure of astrophysical plasmas such as stars is often …

Spectroscopic measurements of dense plasmas at billions of atmospheres provide tests to
our fundamental understanding of how matter behaves at extreme conditions. Developing …

Mixing of plastic ablator material, doped with Cu and Ge dopants, deep into the hot spot of
ignition-scale inertial confinement fusion implosions by hydrodynamic instabilities is …

We have studied the K-shell emission of an Al plasma which was generated by focusing a
high contrast 150 fs laser pulse at a wavelength of 395 nm and intensity of 5× 10 17 W/cm 2 …

Measurements of iron-plasma transmission at 156±6 eV electron temperature and 6.9±1.7×
10 21 cm-3 electron density are reported over the 800–1800 eV photon energy range. The …

Ignition of an inertial confinement fusion (ICF) target depends on the formation of a central
hot spot with sufficient temperature and areal density. Radiative and conductive losses from …

This paper uses extended-magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations to explore an
extreme magnetized plasma regime realizable by cylindrical implosions on the OMEGA …

Hot dense capsule implosions driven by Z-pinch x rays have been measured using a∼ 220
e V dynamic hohlraum to implode 1.7–2.1 mm diameter gas-filled CH capsules. The …

Analysis is presented of K‐and L‐shell spectra obtained from Ar and Xe dopants seeded
into the fuel region of plastic capsules indirectly imploded using the Nova laser. Stark …
