Abstract

New diagnostics were implemented on the implosion experiments performed at LULI to improve our measurements of hydroefficiencies: Neutron chronometry gives the time of emission of the fusion reaction products as measured from the peak of the laser pulse; thereby making it possible to correlate the neutron emission with X-ray emission. Core imaging, based upon a maximum entropy reconstruction technique, leads to core size determination and also is a promising diagnostic for wall nonuniformities induced by irradiation conditions. A simple model is developed to retrieve experimental spectra of a-particles.
