Symmetry issues in shock ignited inertial fusion energy

Motivated by the shock ignition approach to improving the performance of inertial fusion targets, we make a series of studies of the stability of hydrodynamic shock waves. We first examine the behaviour of shocks moving through perturbations in background fluid in planar and 2D converging geometries...
