【 摘 要 】

We have carried out several experiments on the Los Alamos proton radiography (pRad) facility to explore the growth of perturbations subjected to shockless acceleration. These experiments have involved both Tantalum and depleted Uranium plates with various initial amplitudes. The experimental platform is based on the one first developed by Barnes et al. [1] and further advanced by Raevsky [2]. This paper presents both the data for these experiments and an initial attempt to model the experiments using the simulation code FLAG [3].
