Two peaks of fusion reaction rate are simulated by using a two-dimensional simulation program （Lared-s） and confirmed by the experimental results. A neutron temporal diagnostic （NTD） system is developed with a high temporal resolution of - 30 ps at the Shen Guang-Ⅲ （SG-Ⅲ） prototype laser facility in China, to measure the fusion reaction rate history. With the shape of neutron reaction rate curve and the spherical harmonic function in this paper, the degree of Rayleigh-Taylor growth and the main source of the neutron yield in our experiment can be estimated qualitatively. This technique, including the diagnostic system and the simulation program, may provide important information for obtaining a higher neutron yield in implosion experiments of inertial confinement fusion.展开更多

In the simulation, the classical electrical thermal conductivity is included, and NND difference scheme is used. The linear growth rates obtained from the simulation agree with the Takabe formula. The ampli- tude distribution of the density perturbation at the ablation front is obtained for the linear growth case. The non-linear characteristics of Rayleigh-Taylor instable perturbations are analyzed and the numerical results show that the amplitude distributions of the compulsive harmonics are very different from that of the fundamental perturbation. The characteristics of the amplitude distributions of the harmonics and their fast growth explain why spikes occur at the ablation front. The numerical results also show that non-linear effects have relations with the phase differences of double mode initial perturbations, and different phase differences lead to varied spikes.展开更多

The growth rate on the two interfaces and the perturbation feedthrough coefficients between two spherical interfaces are derived. For low-mode perturbation, the feedthrough effect from outer interface to inner interface is much more severe than the corresponding planar case, while the feedback from inner interface to the outer interface is smaller than that in planar geometry. The low-mode perturbations lead to the pronounced RTI growth on the inner interface of a spherical shell that are larger than the cylindrical and planar results. It is the low-mode perturbation that results in the difference between the RTI growth in spherical and cylindrical geometry. When the mode number of the perturbation is large enough, the results in cylindrical geometry are recovered.展开更多

The growth rates and the amplitudes of perturbation on the two interfaces are obtained. The feedback factor from outer to inner interface is larger than that from inner to outer interface under the same conditions. The growth rate on the initially unstable interface is larger than the corresponding result in planar geometry for low mode perturbation. The two interfaces are decoupled for a larger mode number perturbation. The dependencies of the amplitudes of perturbation on different initial conditions are analyzed. The negative feedback effect from initially stable interface to another unstable interface is observed. In the limit of infinity inner radius and finite shell thickness, the results in planar geometry are recovered.展开更多

It is shown that the controversy over compressibility effects in the previous studies is due to improper comparison, in which the density varying effect obscures the real role of compressibility. After eliminating the density varying effect, it is found that the compressibility destabilizes RTI in both the cases of constant density and exponentially varying density when M 《1. This destabilizing effect is more important at smaller values of the Atwood number AT or greater values of gravity g, and the increment in the growth rate produced by compressibility depends inversely on the pressure p or the ratio of specific heat F.展开更多

A three-region slab model, based on ideal MHD equations, is used to derive the dispersion relation of MRT instability. The effect of compressibility on the development of MRT instability is specially examined. It is shown that the growth rate of MRT instability in compressible condition is generally lower than that in incompressible condition in the presence of magnetic field. In the case of zero magnetic field, the growth rate in compressible assumption is approximately the same as that in incompressible assumption. Generally, MRT instability in（x, y） plane can be remarkably mitigated due to the presence of magnetic field especially for short-wavelength perturbations. Perturbations may be nearly completely mitigated when the magnetic field is increased to over 1000 T during liner implosions. The feedthrough of MRT instability in liner outer surface on inner surface is also discussed.展开更多
