The goal is to achieve a very smooth inner surface to minimize perturbations that grow because of the Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instability during the deceleration of the fuel shell as the pressure in the hot spot reaches tens of gigabar.

OMEGA validating direct-drive ignition target designs

In particular, he documented how a form of turbulence known as Rayleigh-Taylor instability (named after the physicists Lord Rayleigh and Geoffrey Taylor) could perturb the expanding plasma of the very hot radiation case, forming waves, ripples and whorls that blocked ignition of the thermonuclear fuel.

At war over aging warheads

The computational power afforded to us by this acquisition enables detailed studies of the development and Rayleigh-Taylor unstable growth of very fine-scale perturbations present in our experiments.
