Abstract

The irradiation of cylindrical targets by intense heavy ion beams was studied using a two-dimensional numerical simulation code including radiation effects on the hydrodynamical flow. Solid and hollow Aluminum targets as well as gas tubes are studied for various beam configurations with a view to identifying the characteristic features of the flow and possible observables, especially the emitted radiation from Xenon gas tubes.
