Simulations of laser imprint reduction using underdense foams and its consequences on the hydrodynamic instability growth
The mechanisms of laser imprint reduction on a surface of a planar foil performed using an underdense foam are presented. The consequences on the Rayleigh–Taylor instability growth at the ablation front when the foil is accelerated are studied. The analysis is based on numerical simulations using a...
