AI Article Synopsis
- The National Ignition Facility is exploring the use of Agfa D4 film to enhance spectral resolution for x-ray imaging in high-energy-density experiments.
- Characterization of the film is being conducted using a Manson x-ray source with six different anodes, building on previous research to improve analysis methods.
- Results from the Agfa D4 film characterization at both the Manson source and the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource Beamline 16-2 are compared, highlighting improvements and reduced uncertainties in the characterization process.
Article Abstract
The National Ignition Facility uses a soft x-ray opacity spectrometer for x-ray spectral imaging in high-energy-density experiments. The increased demand for a better spectral resolution prompted the investigation into the Agfa D4 film. Characterization is already under way for the film. A Manson x-ray source using six different anodes was used to expose film to the linear optical density (OD) region. This is a continuation of the previous work, and the updated analysis process is communicated here. The identified uncertainties have been reduced with the updated steps that improve the results of the characterization process. When the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource Beamline 16-2 was operational, the film was characterized at that source. Its beam offered a higher fluency with a lower exposure time needed to reach saturation. Results for both sources are compared in this paper.
