Shot report, Holo-17-Holo-22 Rex-9

摘要

We report on a series of holographic shots using explosives to generate ejecta from lead. These experiments covered a range of geometries including point initiation and plane wave initiation for the H.E., and using a gas-fill in the cavity where the ejecta was produced. The final experiment, Rex-9 was a Fabry-Perot experiment at Site 300 which provided the velocity history of the lead surface for the purpose of normalizing the code being used to calculate the position of the lead surface in these experiments. The focus of this report is on the experimental technique rather than on the size measurements. We want to insure that the advances in mechanical design and experimental technique that were made during these experiments are preserved in future experiments. 8 figs., 2 tabs.
