Abstract

This report addresses the physical concept and the results of mathematical modeling of cryogenic layer degrading caused by its radiation heating during direct drive target injection into the reaction chamber. Special attention is paid to the influence of a solid layer structure on the roughening of the layer surface that is of critical importance for the development of target injection scenario.
