Abstract
Measuring the thermonuclear burn history is an important way to diagnose inertial fusion implosions. Using the gas Cherenkov detectors at the OMEGA laser facility, we measure the HT fusion burn in a H2+T2 gas-fueled implosion for the first time. Using multiple detectors with varied Cherenkov thresholds, we demonstrate a technique for simultaneously measuring both the HT and DT burn histories from an implosion where the total reaction yields are comparable. This new technique will be used to study material mixing and kinetic phenomena in implosions.
