Effects of preheat on mix in laser accelerated planar foils

Description

We have investigated the effect of x-ray preheat on the development of mix. In these experiments a planar foil package consisting of two materials separated by a smooth interface was ablatively accelerated using a laser produced x-ray drive source. In the normally preheated case the drive had a component which coupled to the interface, while in the low preheat case that component was absent. The measured mix widths and hydrodynamics are compared for both situations. 12 refs., 10 figs
