Abstract
Recently, hohlraum experiments were performed at the Shenguang-II (SG-II) laser facility [Lin et al., Chin. J. Lasers B10, Suppl. IV6 (2001)]. The measured maximum radiation temperature was 170 eV for the standard hohlraum and 150 eV for a 1.5-scaled one. This paper discusses the radiation temperature and laser hohlraum coupling efficiency in terms of a theoretical model [Phys. Plasmas 8, 1659 (2001)] and numerical simulation. A 2D laser–hohlraum coupling code, LARED-H [Chin. J. Comput. Phys. 19, 57 (2002)], gives a satisfactory coincidence with the measured time-resolved radiation temperature. Upon fitting the time-resolved curve, the theoretical model obtains the hohlraum coupling efficiency and, furthermore, the parameter n+s for the hohlraum wall material (Au) can be determined simultaneously, where n, s are the power exponents of temperature for the radiation Rosseland mean-free path and specific internal energy, respectively.
