LLE Review 83
Highlights
This volume of the LLE Review, covering the period from April to June 2000, includes articles on OMEGA diagnostics and experiments as well as research related to the manufacturing and characterization of optical elements used in the laser system. The feature article describes the implementation of electronic cameras to record time-integrated x-ray images on OMEGA.
Additional research highlights reported in this issue are:
- An experimental study of the spatial structure of temperature and density in compressed laser targets on OMEGA.
- A new diagnostic technique, demonstrated on OMEGA, for obtaining particle spectra from imploded targets.
- An interferometric technique for characterizing OMEGA optical elements.
- A study of the mechanisms of glass polishing in the magnetorheological finishing (MRF) technique.
- Imaging of Laser–Plasma X-Ray Emission with Charge-Injection Devices (CID’s)
- X-Ray Spectroscopic Measurements of Areal Density and Modulations of Compressed Shells in Implosion Experiments on OMEGA
- Secondary D-3 He Proton Spectra from D 2 -Filled OMEGA Targets
- Comparison of a Liquid Crystal Point-Diffraction Interferometer and a Commercial Phase-Shifting Interferometer
- Understanding the Mechanism of Glass Removal in Magnetorheological Finishing (MRF)
- Publications and Conference Presentations
