Abstract
X-ray imaging instruments will operate in a harsh ionizing radiation background environment on implosion experiments at the National Ignition Facility. These backgrounds consist of mostly neutrons and gamma rays produced by inelastic scattering of neutrons. Imaging systems based on x-ray framing cameras with film and CCD's have been designed to operate in such harsh neutron-induced background environments. Some imaging components were placed inside a shielded enclosure that reduced exposures to neutrons and gamma rays. Modeling of the signal and noise of the x-ray imaging system is presented.
