Abstract
Results are presented from the two-dimensional numerical simulations of las er energy input into a hohlraum through a hole. This problem is of interest for ICF research, specifically, for optimization of laser microtarget desi gn. The optimum relations are found between the hole size and the effective laser spot radius under conditions close to those of present-day ICF exper iments. (C) 2000 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
