Measurements and calculations of the inverse bremsstrahlung absorption of intense microwaves are presented. The isotropic component of the electron distribution becomes flat-topped in agreement with detailed Fokker-Planck calculations. The plasma heating is reduced due to the flat-topped distributions in agreement with calculations. The calculations show that the heat flux at high microwave powers is very large, q{sub max} {approx} 0.3 n{sub e}v{sub e}T{sub e}. A new particle model to, calculate the heat transport inhibition due to ion acoustic turbulence in ICF plasmas is also presented. One-dimensional PIC calculations of ion acoustic turbulence excited due to heat transport are presented. The 2-D PIC code is presently being used to perform calculations of heat flux inhibition due to ion acoustic turbulence.

A critical requirement for accurately representing surface-atmosphere interactions within an atmospheric model is to realistically characterize the land surface. Data must be extracted from a geographical database and transformed so that it is consistent with the needs of the numerical model. In such a process, there are two major classes of error that must be understood and minimized whenever possible. The first class involves the accuracy, precision, and resolution of the geographical data itself. The second is error introduced by the transformations used to assimilate the data into the atmospheric model. Thus, this research has two coupled objectives: to understand the effects of errors within the geographical data base upon the accuracy of the atmospheric model simulation and to design optimal techniques for the transformation of the data.

We report on the absorption of laser energy that results when an ultra-intense laser pulse is incident onto a sharp vacuum-plasma boundary, where the initial shelf density of the plasma is much greater than the critical density, n{sub cr}. It is found that 2-D effects greatly increase the amount of absorption into hot electrons, over the amount predicted using 1-D theory. In particular, a scaling for the absorption as a function of density, for a fixed laser intensity, implies that the absorption will be of order 30% for densities well in excess of The interaction is studied using both 1- and 2- dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) 100 n{sub cr} simulations. The 1-D results agree quite well with a simple scaling of JxB heating, where the laser electric field penetrates a skin depth into the overdense plasma and subsequently heats electrons. In 2-D, when the laser is incident at an angle, the absorption is seen to increase substantially due to a form of resonant absorption that occurs in steep density profiles. We find that the inclusion of kinetic and multi-dimensional effects are crucial to obtaining a complete picture of the interaction. The ability of ultra-intense lasers to produce acceptable amounts o f …

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory responded to the 17 January 1994, Northridge earthquake by sending an information gathering team to observe and study the collapse of the interchange between highways 14 and I-5 in the northern San Fernando Valley. This field team examined the structural failure at the interchange and the surface soil conditions, and they installed high-grain RefTek seismic recorders to record aftershocks. We recorded aftershocks for two weeks. Analyses of aftershock recordings in this report illustrate the degree of differential support motion for this site, and the higher than expected ground motion from an earthquake of this size and distance. We used the aftershock recordings of small earthquakes as empirical Green`s functions and synthesized strong ground motion at three sites in the interchange area. Results presented here are based on an assumption that the geology of the interchange area remained linear in its response to the main event.
