摘要：

The perturbation transfer between the rear and front surface (feedout), secular distortion, and Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) instability growth is studied for long wavelength modes in accelerated flat foils. A simple formula is derived, relating the R-T growth factor to the amplitude of the rear surface perturbation. Comparisons with two-dimensional simulations confirm the validity of the theory.
