Executive Summary
Our research is focused on improving national capabilities in modelling laser- and x-ray-heated foams accurately, thus enabling more predictable, better performing, foam-filled laser target capsules (hohlraums). Our work supports the nation's science-based stockpile stewardship and energy security efforts by advancing the science of indirect drive inertial confinement fusion.
