Streak electronic camera with slow-scanning storage tube used in the field of high-speed cineradiography

  • 1. CEA Centre d'Etudes de Vaujours, 93 - Sevran (France)

Description

The cineradiographic machine designed for measurements in the field of detonics consists of a linear accelerator associated with a braking target, a scintillator and a remote controlled electronic camera. The quantum factor of X-ray detection and the energetic efficiency of the scintillator are given. The electronic camera is built upon a deflection-converter tube (RCA C. 73 435 AJ) coupled by optical fibres to a photosensitive storage tube (TH-CSF Esicon) used in a slow-scanning process with electronic recording of the information. The different parts of the device are described. Some capabilities such as data processing numerical outputs, measurements and display are outlined. A streak cineradiogram of a typical implosion experiment is given

Abstract (French)

La chaine de cineradiographie destinee a des mesures en detonique comprend un accelerateur lineaire associe a une cible de freinage, un scintillateur et une camera electronique telecommandee. On evalue le rendement quantique de detection X ainsi que l'efficacite energetique du scintillateur. La camera electronique est basee sur l'emploi d'un tube convertisseur a deflexion (RCA C, 73 435 AJ) couple par fibres optiques a un tube a memoire bombardee (TH-CSF Esicon) exploite en balayage lent avec enregistrement electrique de l'information. On evalue la sensibilite de cette camera en termes de probabilite de detection d'une image minimum. L'appareillage est decrit dans ses differentes parties. Les possibilites de traitement, de numerisation, de mesure et de visualisation sont evoquees. Un cineradiogramme a fente d'une experience typique d'implosion est montre
