A new configuration of spherical hohlraums with seven laser entrance holes (LEHs) on OMEGA has been proposed, known as the PEPR hohlraums. By optimizing beam pointings, the PEPR hohlraums achieve a nonuniformity ranging from 0.6% to 1.1%. The study explores the tradeoffs between hohlraum-to-capsule ratio, uniformity, and background radiation temperature.
A new configuration is proposed for spherical hohlraums on OMEGA in which seven laser entrance holes (LEHs) are used-five around the equator and one at each pole [Farmer et al., Phys. Plasmas 26, 032701 (2019)]. This is known as the PEPR (pentagonal prism) hohlraums. A new view-factor code LORE is used to model the PEPR hohlraums and compare its performance with tetrahedral hohlraums shot on OMEGA. With optimization of beam pointings, the PEPR hohlraums produces a nonuniformity ranging from 1.1% (rms) at low albedos to 0.6% at high albedos. The tradeoffs between hohlraums-to-capsule ratio, uniformity, and background radiation temperature have been explored, and it has been shown that larger LEH radii on the poles can result in a modest improvement in uniformity. The seven-hole PEPR hohlraums is well matched to the OMEGA symmetry and promises to provide insight into the performance of spherical hohlraums including octahedral (six-LEH) hohlraums.
