Abstract
High density carbon capsule ablators are of primary interest for National Ignition Facility experiments. Two of the major contributors to hydrodynamic instabilities in these capsules are voids and high-density inclusions, where the quantity and size of these defects can result in lower yields in inertial confinement fusion. To aid in capsule selection, General Atomics developed a LabVIEW analysis routine to quantify these defects based off a large field-of-view tomographic dataset and to provide insight into the quality of the capsule. This analysis determines if there are large voids or inclusions that may affect shot performance and helps rank which capsules should be used.
