The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) proposes to provide financial assistance to The University of Michigan for scientific research related to the Center for Laser Experimental Astrophysics Research (CLEAR). The University proposes to continue to study dynamics induced by radiation, shock waves, and supersonic flows, of relevance to the formation of structure in the Universe, and in the process to continue to produce a steady pipeline of Ph.D. students of interest to the NNSA Laboratories. CLEAR would continue to work on laser facilities, which may include Omega, the
