Quantification of Uncertainties Due to Opacities in a Laser-Driven Radiative-Shock Problem

This research presents new physics-based methods to estimate predictive uncertainty stemming from uncertainty in the material opacities in radiative transfer computations of key quantities of interest (QOIs). New methods are needed because it is infeasible to apply standard uncertainty-propagation...
