Measurement of temperature and density using non-collective X-ray Thomson scattering in pulsed power produced warm dense plasmas

We present the first experimental measurement of temperature and density of a warm dense plasma produced by a pulsed power driver at the Nevada Terawatt Facility (NTF). In the early phases of discharge, most of the mass remains in the core, and it has been challenging to diagnose with traditional me...
