Point design targets, specifications, and requirements for the 2010 ignition campaign on the National Ignition Facility
Point design targets have been specified for the initial ignition campaign on the National Ignition Facility [G. H. Miller, E. I. Moses, and C. R. Wuest, Opt. Eng. 443, 2841 (2004)]. The targets… Expand
An overview of LLNL high-energy short-pulse technology for advanced radiography of laser fusion experiments
- C. Barty, M. Key, +33 authors B. Wattellier
- Physics
- 1 December 2004
The technical challenges and motivations for high-energy, short-pulse generation with the National Ignition Facility (NIF) and possibly other large-scale Nd : glass lasers are reviewed. High-energy… Expand
High‐speed gated x‐ray imaging for ICF target experiments (invited)
- D. Bradley, P. Bell, +5 authors C. P. Verdon
- Physics
- 1 October 1992
We describe the use of gated microchannel‐plate detectors as high‐speed framing cameras in laser‐driven inertial‐confinement‐fusion experiments. Using an array of pinholes to image the target,… Expand
Development and characterization of a pair of 30–40 ps x‐ray framing cameras
- D. Bradley, P. Bell, O. Landen, J. Kilkenny, J. Oertel
- Physics
- 1995
We have constructed two slightly different high‐speed framing cameras for use on NOVA and the OMEGA Upgrade. Both units are based on the gating of a microchannel plate, with one detector having a… Expand
Diffusive, supersonic x-ray transport in radiatively heated foam cylinders
Diffusive supersonic radiation transport, where the ratio of the diffusive radiation front velocity to the material sound speed >2 has been studied in experiments on low density (40 mg/cc to 50… Expand
X-ray imaging techniques on Z using the Z-Beamlet laser
- Guy R. Bennett, O. Landen, +4 authors C. Wakefield
- Physics
- 3 January 2001
The Z-Beamlet laser backlighter system at Sandia National Laboratories, which will be operational in 2001, will create a point or area source of high (or moderate) energy x rays behind a… Expand
Symmetry tuning for ignition capsules via the symcap techniquea)
- G. A. Kyrala, J. Kline, +25 authors J. Kilkenny
- Physics
- 5 May 2011
Symmetry of an implosion is crucial to get ignition successfully. Several methods of control and measurement of symmetry have been applied on many laser systems with mm size hohlraums and ns pulses.… Expand
Hot-spot mix in ignition-scale implosions on the NIF
- S. Regan, Ronald M. Epstein, +34 authors R. Town
- Physics
- 30 March 2012
Ignition of an inertial confinement fusion (ICF) target depends on the formation of a central hot spot with sufficient temperature and areal density. Radiative and conductive losses from the hot spot… Expand
