Catoptric X-ray optical system for use in laser-fusion diagnostics
Abstract
A compound X-ray imaging device was developed as an aid in the diagnostics of a laser-fusion process which involves a pellet about 100 microns in diameter. While previous reports have dealt with the use of certain aspheric surfaces in the X-ray imaging process, this report is confined to a thorough investigation of the use of Abbe's sine condition at grazing angles of incidence in the case of a single reflector.
