Experiments with three different laser irradiation patterns were performed, and each produced a distinct proton image. By comparing these results with synthetic proton images obtained by sending protons through plasma profiles in the hohlraum obtained from 3D radiation hydrodynamic simulations, it is found that the simulated images agree favorably with the experimental images when electric fields, due to the electron pressure gradients that arise from 3D structures occurring during plasma expansion, are included. These comparisons provide quantitative estimates of the electric field present inside the hohlraums <a href="http://library.psfc.mit.edu/catalog/reports/2010/18ja/18ja062/abstract.php">PSFC REPORT PSFC/JA-18-62</a><br /><br />This work was supported in part by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Grant DE-NA0002726.
