We measured the stopping of energetic protons in an isochorically heated solid-density Be
plasma with an electron temperature of∼ 32 eV, corresponding to moderately coupled [(e …

MeV-range ions generated in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) and high-energy-density
physics experiments carry a wealth of information, including fusion reaction yield, rate, and …

Compact wedge-range-filter proton spectrometers cover proton energies∼ 3–20 MeV. They
have been used at the OMEGA laser facility for more than a decade for measuring spectra of …

The effects of shock dynamics on compressibility of indirect-drive ignition-scale surrogate
implosions, CH shells filled with D 3 He gas, have been studied using charged-particle …

Proton radiography is an essential diagnostic for studying magnetic fields in high energy
density physics experiments. Protons are born in a fusion implosion, traverse the plasma …

Image plates (IPs) are a quickly recoverable and reusable radiation detector often used to
measure proton and x-ray fluence in laser-driven experiments. Recently, IPs have been …

The detection properties of CR-39 were investigated for protons, deuterons, and tritons of
various energies. Two models for the relationship between the track diameter and particle …

New designs and a new analysis technique have been developed for an existing compact
charged-particle spectrometer on the NIF and OMEGA. The new analysis technique extends …

CR-39 solid-state nuclear track detectors are widely used in physics and in many inertial
confinement fusion (ICF) experiments, and under ideal conditions these detectors have …

A compact, step range filter proton spectrometer has been developed for the measurement
of the absolute DD proton spectrum, from which yield and areal density (ρR) are inferred for …
