Results from design simulations for the experimental configuration shown in Fig. 4d. (a) Isodensity contours at 0.8 ns for the full radiative hydrodynamics simulation. (b) Same as (a), but for a simulation with radiation turned off. (c) Lateral profile of density of the jet at 0.8 ns at a position of ﹩z=400\,\mu \mathrm{m}\,﹩, with radiation (solid curve) and without radiation (dashed curve) included in the simulation. (d) Same as (c) but for profiles of temperature.
