We discuss the analysis of direct-drive implosion experiments at OMEGA, in which multiple narrow-band images were recorded with a multimonochromatic x-ray imaging instrument. The temperature spatial structure is investigated by using the sensitivity of the Lyβ/Heβ line emissivity ratio to the temperature. Three analysis methods that consider the argon Heβ and Lyβ image data are discussed and the results compared. The methods are based on a ratio of image intensities, ratio of Abel-inverted emissivities, and a search and reconstruction technique driven by a Pareto genetic algorithm. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/47996 | ISSN: | 0034-6748 | DOI: | 10.1063/1.2966370 | Source: | Review Of Scientific Instruments [ISSN 0034-6748], v. 79 (10) |
