The heart of the Ultrafast Rochester Optical Streak System (UROSS) cameras used by the Omega Laser Facility is the streak tube. The cameras are used to diagnose the pulse shape on the OMEGA EP short-pulse, 1- to 100-ps beamlines.

Shown here is UROSS camera shown inside the short-pulse diagnostic package (SPDP) in the OMEGA EP Bay along with OMEGA EP system scientist Jie Qiao.
