The National Ignition Facility is equipped with a wide suite of diagnostics including optical, x-ray, and neutron diagnostics to analyze experiments and look for areas of improvements. NIF diagnostics are either deployed to a fixed location on the target chamber or on a Diagnostic Instrument Manipulator (DIM). DIMs are two-stage telescoping devices used to insert, retract, position, and align a diagnostic instrument in the target chamber. Additionally, DIMs provide a standard set of cables to support operation of all DIM-based diagnostic instruments.
