Properties of hot-spot emission in a warm plastic-shell implosion on the OMEGA laser system

A warm plastic-shell implosion is performed on the OMEGA laser system. The measured corona plasma evolution and shell trajectory in the acceleration phase are reasonably simulated by the one-dimensional lilac simulation including the nonlocal and cross-beam energy transfer models. The results from analytical thin-shell model reproduce the time-dependent shell radius by lilac simulation and also the hot-spot x-ray-emissivity profile at stagnation predicted by spect3d. In the spect3d simulations within a clean implosion, a U-shaped hot-spot radius evolution can be observed with the Kirkpatrick-Baez microscope response (the photon energy is from 4 to 8 keV). However, a fading-away hot-spot radius evolution is measured in OMEGA warm plastic-shell implosion because of mixings. To recover the measured hot-spot x-ray emissivity profile at stagnation, a nonisobaric hot-spot model is built and the normalized hot-spot temperature, density, and pressure profiles (normalized to the corresponding target-center values) are obtained.
