Cryo-Ablation Experiments for Omega in FY23 [Slides]
Future HED & Nuclear Survivability platforms will use macroscopic 2PP lattice materials for inter-shell support and as a host for higher-yield DT wetted-lattice ablator targets. Average EOS and shock spatial non-uniformity measurements are needed as a function of lattice properties. The FY23 goal is to understand ablative & shock characteristics of heterogeneous D 2 - filled lattice materials at low drive intensities (~250TW/cm 2 ) in planar geometry.
