Description
A fuel capsule placed inside a cylindrical cavity is compressed by thermal X rays. The dynamic properties of the pusher and the fuel near the stagnation phase are measured by using advanced instruments for X ray and neutron diagnostics. A newly developed 10 ps X ray framing camera reveals rapid changes in the X ray emission distributions in the pusher and the fuel. The present experimental conditions are not yet sufficient for achieving high spherical symmetry under compression characterized by high stagnation. Several approaches to improving the implosion symmetry are examined. (author). 13 refs, 3 figs
