Proceedings ArticleDOI
High-energy x-ray source generation by short-pulse high-intensity lasers
Hye-Sook Park,Jeffrey A. Koch,O L Landen,T. W. Phillips,T. Goldsack,Edward B. Clark,Richard Eagleton,R. Edwards +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the feasibility of utilizing KD x-ray sources in the range of 20 to 100 keV as a backlighters for imagingvarious stages of implosions and high aerial density planar samples driven by the NIF laser facility was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring fusion yields, areal densities, and ion temperatures of imploded capsules at OMEGA (abstract)
C. K. Li,Damien Hicks,F. H. Séguin,J. A. Frenje,R. D. Petrasso,J. M. Soures,P. B. Radha,V. Yu. Glebov,Christian Stoeckl,J. P. Knauer,F. J. Marshall,D. D. Meyerhofer,S. Skupsky,Stephanie A. Roberts,C. Sorce,T. C. Sangster,T. W. Phillips,M. D. Cable +17 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the particle spectra (both nuclear lines and continua) from a variety of capsule implosions are measured using charged-particle spectroscopy (PPS) and important parameters such as fusion yields, fuel and shell areal densities, and ion temperatures can be readily deduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Line overlap measurement for the photopumping of X-ray lasing transitions between n = 3 and n = 2 autoionizing states of lithium-like Al
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed measurement of the Kβ spectrum of He-like Al 11+, including the dielectronic satellite spectrum excited by the KLM resonances, and comparisons with theoretical predictions from multi-configuration Dirac-Fock calculations are made.
Study of Scattered Background Neutron in NIF and Time-of Flight (TOF) to Measure Neutron
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of primary neutrons scattered by the walls of the massive target chamber and structures both inside and outside the chamber will contribute a significant scattered background signal when trying to determine the number of neutrons down-scattered from the target core.
