Two-Plasmon-Decay Instability Stimulated by a Normal- and Large-Angle-Incidence Laser Pair
C. -W. Lian, Y. Ji, R. Yan +6
The two-plasmon-decay instability (TPD) is a critical target preheating risk in direct-drive inertial confinement fusion. In this paper, TPD collectively driven by a normal-inciden…
