Simultaneous diagnosis of radial profiles and mix in NIF ignition-scale implosions via X-ray spectroscopy
In a NIF implosion hydrodynamic instabilities may cause cold material from the imploding shell to be injected into the hot-spot (hot-spot mix), enhancing the radiative and conductive losses, which in turn may lead to a quenching of the ignition process. The bound-bound features of the spectrum emitt...
