Abstract

The application of extreme ultra-violet (XUV) lasers to the probing of Rayleigh Taylor instability (RTI) growth on planar targets has been investigated using the 2D hydrodynamic code POLLUX. Simulations of XUV probing have allowed characterisation of the expected effects of lateral movement of material on the transmission of plastic and iron targets. The effects on XUV transmission of seeding the Rayleigh-Taylor Instability with varying laser modulations has been studied.
