Extreme ultraviolet probing of laser imprint in a thin foil using an x-ray laser backlighter
For direct drive inertial confinement fusion, a capsule is imploded by directly illuminating the surface with laser light. Beam smoothing and uniformity of illumination affect the seeding of instabilities at the ablation front. We have developed a technique for studying the imprint of a laser beam o...
