The experiments to study the indirect drive targets'
dynamics in a highly symmetrical X-radiation field were
performed on the ISKRA-5 facility. This paper covered the
results of experiments with the targets in the form of
a Cu spherical hohlraum, the internal surface of which
is coated with Au, with six holes for laser radiation input.
In the center of the aforementioned hohlraum, a glass capsule
filled with D–T gas was placed. In several experiments,
the central capsule was coated with an ablator made of
plastic with a different thickness. This allowed us to
perform a series of experiments in which the different
compression degree of D–T fuel was achieved. The
analyses of experimental results revealed good agreement
between the latter and the spherically symmetrical hydrodynamic
calculations.
