Integrated code development and analysis of implosion and hydrodynamic experiments

The computational simulations play an important role in the study of inertial confinement fusion physics. For the understanding of the physics, integrated implosion code which includes all physics important in the implosion has been developed. On the other hands, several computational codes have been developed in order to verify the physics models and analyze experimental results. The characteristics of these computational codes and recent progress of implosion, ignition, Rayleigh-Taylor instability, ripple shock propagation, and burn dynamics analysis are reported here.
