Funded Activity Summary

The general Richtmyer-Meshkov instability in magnetohydrodynamics. Fluid dynamic instabilities limit the chance of inertial confinement fusion, a carbon-free process, achieving net energy production. In highly idealised circumstances it has been shown that one of these instabilities can be suppressed by a magnetic field, a phenomenon that this project will investigate in the general case.
