The effect of shock dynamics on compressibility of ignition-scale National Ignition Facility implosions

The effects of shock dynamics on compressibility of indirect-drive ignition-scale surrogate implosions, CH shells filled with D[superscript 3]He gas, have been studied using charged-particle spectroscopy. Spectral measurements of D[superscript 3]He protons produced at the shock-bang time probe the s...
