Abstract

Hydrodynamic instabilities limit the aspect ratio of an imploding shell in laser driven fusion, and therefore the highest core pressure achievable for a given ablation pressure. Simulations shows the hydrodynamic growth rate of the Rayleigh Taylor instability of the ablating surface can be approximated.
