Symmetry issues in Directly Irradiated Targets

In direct drive Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF), the typical laser beam to laser beam angle is around 30°. This fact makes the study of the irradiation symmetry a genuine 3D problem. In this paper we use the three dimensional version of the MULTI hydrocode to assess the symmetry of such ICF implos...
