Demonstration of ignition radiation temperatures in indirect-drive inertial confinement fusion hohlraums.

Siegfried Glenzer, +411 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the hohlraum radiation temperature and symmetry required for ignition-scale inertial confinement fusion capsule implosions, and demonstrate that these hohlrasums absorb 87% to 91% of the incident laser power, resulting in peak radiation temperatures of T(RAD)=300 eV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI

National Ignition Facility system alignment.

TL;DR: The National Ignition Facility (NIF) as discussed by the authors is the world's largest optical instrument, comprising 192 37'cm square beams, each generating up to 9.6'kJ of 351'nm laser light in a 20'ns beam precisely tailored in time and spectrum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pulse-dilation enhanced gated optical imager with 5 ps resolution (invited).

TL;DR: Details of the unique issues associated with rf excited photocathodes were investigated numerically and a prototype instrument based on this principle was recently constructed and the results are presented here.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predicting the coherent X-ray wavefront focal properties at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) X-ray free electron laser

TL;DR: Newly available precision surface metrology data from actual LCLS mirrors combined with a scalar diffraction model is used to predict the LCLs beam properties in the experiment chambers.
