Notes:
Ultrafast two-dimensional x-ray imaging is required for diagnosing laser-driven inertial confinement fusion plasmas. Image sampling technique with x-ray streak cameras can meet this requirement. Multi-imaging x-ray streak camera method (MIXS) with temporal and spatial resolutions of 10 ps and 15 μm, respectively, has been developed and successfully utilized for diagnosing the uniformity and heating process of the imploded core plasmas. The two-dimensional sampling-image x-ray streak camera method is also presented. Two types of spectroscopic applications of the MIXS have been developed recently. One is multichannel MIXS, which has three MIXS channels with various spectral responses for time-resolved two-dimensional temperature measurement of the plasmas. Another is monochromatic MIXS for temperature, density, and mixing measurement, in which monochromatic images with Bragg crystals are coupled to MIXS. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
