Abstract:Abstract. The uniformity of the illumination of a spherical capsule directly driven by laser beams has been assessed numerically. Different schemes characterized by N D = 12, 20, 32, 48 and 60 directions of irradiation associated to a single laser beam or a bundle of N B laser beams have been considered. The laser beams intensity profile is assumed super-Gaussian and the calculations take into account for beam imperfections as power imbalance and pointing errors. These facilities are characterized by a large n… Show more
