Abstract

One- (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) x-ray imaging techniques with x-ray streak cameras have been developed and utilized for investigating implosion dynamics of laser fusion targets. Conventional streaked 1D images of the shell motion of the imploding target was recorded together with the time-resolved 2D multi-imaging x-ray streak images of the core shapes on the same x-ray streak camera. Precise comparison of the core dynamics between the experimental and simulation results was performed with an accuracy of 30 ps by fitting the trajectories of the x-ray emission from the imploding shell. {copyright} {ital 1997 American Institute of Physics.}

One-dimensional and multichannels multi-imaging x-ray streak camera for imploded core plasma of shell-cone target

Journal Article Jiayong, Zhong ; Shiraga, Hiroyuki ; Azechi, Hiroshi - Review of Scientific Instruments

Recently one-dimensional and multichannels multi-imaging x-ray streak camera (1D+McMIXS) has been proposed as an ultrafast diagnostic tool for imploded core plasma of shell-cone target. This diagnostic system can provide much more information of core plasma dynamics, such as the shell trajectory before the maximum compression, two dimensional (2D) x-ray images, and 2D map of electron temperature. The 1D+McMIXS was used in an implosion experiment of a shell target with a cone for fast ignition at Gekko XII laser facility. The interaction between the core plasma and the tip of the cone was observed and revealed some detailed structures. A seriesmore »« less

Multi-imaging x-ray streak camera for ultrahigh-speed two-dimensional x-ray imaging of imploded core plasmas (invited)

Journal Article Shiraga, H ; Fujioka, S ; Jaanimagi, P A ; ... - Review of Scientific Instruments

Ultrahigh-speed two-dimensional x-ray imaging by using an image sampling technique on an x-ray streak camera has been developed and applied to observe the imploded core plasmas of inertial confinement fusion targets. Various one-dimensional and two-dimensional sampling techniques of two-dimensional images were compared, and the multi-imaging x-ray streak camera (MIXS), was found to be one of the most successful schemes. MIXS was used in an implosion experiment of a shell target with a cone for fast ignition at the OMEGA laser facility. Nonuniform structure in imploded core plasma dynamics was clearly observed with temporal and spatial resolutions of 10 ps andmore » 10-20 {mu}m, respectively.« less

Observation of asymmetrically imploded core plasmas with a two-dimensional sampling image x-ray streak camera

Journal Article Shiraga, Hiroyuki ; Lee, Myongdok ; Mahigashi, Norimitsu ; ... - Review of Scientific Instruments

A shell target with a cone for guiding the heating beam has been proposed for the fast ignition scheme. Implosion of such target is no longer symmetric because of the cone. A fast two-dimensional x-ray imaging technique, two-dimensional (2D) sampling image x-ray streak camera was applied for the first time to observation of the dynamics of implosion and core plasma. X-ray emission image of the plasma was sampled with two-dimensionally distributed image sampling points, streaked with the tube, and the recorded signals were reconstructed as sequential 2D frame images. Shape and movement of the core plasma were clearly observed.

Ultrafast two-dimensional x-ray imaging with x-ray streak cameras for laser fusion research (invited)

Journal Article Shiraga, H ; Miyanaga, N ; Heya, M ; ... - Review of Scientific Instruments

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 {mu}m, 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 measurementmore »« less

Measurement of heating laser injection time to imploded core plasma by using x-ray framing camera

Journal Article Koga, Mayuko ; Fujiwara, Takashi ; Sakaiya, Tatsuhiro ; ... - Review of Scientific Instruments

A simultaneous measurement of imploded core plasma and injection time of heating laser is conducted by using an x-ray framing camera (XFC). The experiments are performed using Gekko XII laser system for implosion of the deuterated polystyrene (CD) plastic shell target and Peta Watt (PW) laser system for heating. The time of PW laser injection is observed as the bright zone in the XFC image. The measured x-ray intensity profiles fit the Gaussian profiles well. The calculations of microchannel plate by using dynode model explain these broadened temporal profiles qualitatively. The peak position of fitted x-ray intensity profile is almostmore »« less
