Abstract
Gas filled halfraum experiments were conducted at the
National Ignition Facility which provided an excellent test of the tools
needed to understand halfraum energetics in an ignition relevant regime. The
experiments used a highly shaped laser pulse and measured large levels of
backscattered laser energy. These two components challenge the ability of
radiation hydrodynamic simulations to model the experiments. The results
show good agreement between experimental measurements and simulations.
