摘要
Laser-driven cylindrical implosion experiments enable direct measurements of hydrodynamic instability growth in convergent geometries, providing a wealth of validation data in the high-energy-density regime. These experiments are designed to be nearly axially invariant, allowing for modeling with complementary two-dimensional slices of the cylinder. Two distinct hydrodynamics codes are employed to model a subset of these experiments, and the results are shown to be in very good agreement with each other and the available experimental data. While this 2D modeling approach adequately captures most of the physics of the implosion and ensuing instability growth, there are crucial aspects from the three-dimensional nature of the experiments that are missed in 2D. The first fully 3D simulations of these experiments are presented, and small but significant differences are found to arise from both the axial and azimuthal non-uniformity in the laser drive. Recent experimental results confirming the drive asymmetry are discussed.
