Shock-Ignition Target Designs for OMEGA

Shock-ignition designs of cryogenic targets on OMEGA are presented. The targets are designed to be an 83-\textit{$\mu $}m DT shell with a 10-\textit{$\mu $}m plastic ablator and outer radius of 430 \textit{$\mu $}m being driven by 25 kJ of laser energy in a triple-picket design. Using the triple-picket laser design makes it possible for the OMEGA Laser System to maximize the energy on target while shaping the adiabat to reduce the growth of Rayleigh--Taylor instabilities. One-dimensional simulations using the hydrodynamic code \textit{LILAC} indicate the cryogenic target achieves neutron yields of 4.6 $\times $ 10$^{13}$ and areal densities of 450~mg/cm$^{3}$. Two-dimensional \textit{DRACO} simulations, including ice roughness and multimode laser-imprint perturbations, will also be presented.
