  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. DARHT is the dual axis radiographic hydrodynamic test facility at Los Alamos National Laboratory. The radiographic spot size is a critical parameter in the performance of the facility to produce quality radiographs. Images of the radiographic spot of the first axis of the DARHT facility have been acquired using a pinhole geometry, scintillator, and CCD framing cameras. The experimental setup, data acquisition and analysis of the time integrated radiographic spot size will be presented.
