Abstract

We have undertaken a systematic study of transport in spherical geometry using the OMEGA 24-beam uniform irradiation facility. Experiments were done with 2 kJ, 1 nsec pulses at irradiances of 5 multiplied by 10**1**3-10**1**5 W/cm**2. We find that the experimental results cannot be adequately modeled with flux-limited transport for any f value - not even uninhibited (f equals 0. 65), or classical, transport.
