Proton radiography of a laser-driven implosion
Protons accelerated by a picosecond laser pulse have been used to radiograph a 500μm diameter capsule, imploded with 300 J of laser light in 6 symmetrically incident beams of wavelength 1.054μm and pulse length 1 ns. Point projection proton backlighting was used to characterize the density gradients...
