We present a design and implementation of proton deflectometry using an in situ reference X-ray image of a mesh to precisely measure non-uniform magnetic fields in expanding plasmas. The technique has been developed using proton and X-ray sources generated from capsule implosions and laser-solid interactions. Our results demonstrate that using a high Z mesh with a large grid spacing can significantly enhance the image contrast, leading to improved accuracy in magnetic field measurement compared to previous demonstrations.
We report a design and implementation of proton deflectometry with an in situ reference x-ray image of a mesh to precisely measure non-uniform magnetic fields in expanding plasmas at the OMEGA and OMEGA EP laser facilities. The technique has been developed with proton and x-ray sources generated from both directly driven capsule implosions and short pulse laser-solid interactions. The accuracy of the measurement depends on the contrast of both the proton and x-ray images. We present numerical and analytic studies to optimize the image contrast using a variety of mesh materials and grid spacings. Our results show clear enhancement of the image contrast by factors of four to six using a high Z mesh with large grid spacing. This leads to further improvement in the accuracy of the magnetic field measurement using this technique in comparison with its first demonstration at the OMEGA laser facility [Rev Sci. Instrum. 93, 023502 (2022)]. (C) 2022 Optica Publishing Group
