First application of a digital mirror Langmuir probe for real-time plasma diagnosis
(AIP, 2021-10)For the first time, a digital Mirror Langmuir probe (MLP) has successfully sampled plasma temperature, ion saturation current, and floating potential together on a single probe tip in real time in a radio-frequency driven ... -
Characterizing x-ray transmission through filters used in high energy density physics diagnostics
(AIP, 2020-12)We report on the design and implementation of a new system used to characterize the energy-dependent x-ray transmission curve, Θ(E), through filters used in high-energy density physics diagnostics. Using an Amptek X-123-CdTe ... -
Interpolating individual line-of-sight neutron spectrometer measurements onto the “sky” at the National Ignition Facility (NIF)
(AIP, 2020-12)Nuclear diagnostics provide measurements of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosions used as metrics of performance for the shot. The interpretation of these measurements for shots with low mode asymmetries requires a ...
