This document describes some analysis methods that can be performed using the Kaleidoscope test object (KTO) in order to assess DARHT radiography performance. The goal of these methods is to provide a simple metric of radiographic performance to compare different system configurations at DARHT. Specifically, these methods can be used to assess the Tiffany configurations to determine relative radiographic performance. To demonstrate the methods, we show results analysis performed on the ‘Tiffany A’ shot conducted in July 2021.
