LLE Review, Quarterly Report: Volume 72, July-September 1997

Description: This volume of the LLE Review, covering the period July--September 1997, begins with a general introduction to LLE`s experimental physics program and a report on recent results. This article includes a useful summary of the system`s operational capabilities and system parameters. Other highlights of the wide variety of research presented in this issue are: a promising method to directly observe the cold compressed shell of an imploding target. The shell is normally observed by backlighting. The… more

LLE Review, Quarterly Report: Volume 77, October-December 1998

Description: This volume of the LLE Review, covering the period October--December 1998, includes two articles addressing issues applicable to direct-drive ICF on the National Ignition Facility (NIF): laser-plasma interactions and laser-irradiation uniformity. Additional highlights of the research presented in this issue are: (1) P.B. Radha and S. Skupsky present a novel charged-particle diagnostic that performs simultaneous {rho}R measurements of the fuel, shell, and ablator regions of a compressed ICF targ… more

LLE Review, Quarterly Report: Volume 74, January-March 1998

Description: This volume of the LLE Review covers the period January--March 1998. The first of eight articles documents the in-house development, scale-up, and manufacture of 60 continuous distributed phase plates with high laser-damage resistance. D.J. Smith et al. describe how inert ion beams were used to etch a continuously varying pattern into the surface of fused silica to form these devices. Other highlights of research presented in this issue are: (1) a soft x-ray microscope with high spatial resolut… more
