Abstract
In deuterium-tritium cryogenic implosions, hot-spot x-ray self-emission is observed to begin at a larger shell radius than is predicted by a one-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamic implosion model. Laser-imprint is shown to explain the observation for a low-adiabat implosion. For more-stable implosions the data are not described by the imprint model and suggest there are additional sources of decompression of the dense fuel.
