Interaction Problem

Smoothing of laser-plasma interaction by ISI, RPP, SSD, etc. was mainly directed to overcome lateral nonuniformity of irradiation. While these problems are in no way less important, we derived numerically the model of the Laue rippling and hydrorelaxation model for explanation of the measured temporal pulsation in the 10- to 40-ps range and how the smoothing schemes suppress these pulsations. The partial standing wave fields of the normally coherent laser-irradiated plasma corona is then suppressed by smoothing and conclusion for tests for this model, e.g., by the “question mark experiment” is given. The result provides a physics solution of the laser interaction problem for direct-drive inertial fusion energy
