Improvements to the VISAR and Streaked Optical Pyrometer at the Omega Laser Facility

POSTER

Abstract

VISAR and optical pyrometry measurements are mainstay of high-energy-density physics experiments. These systems on OMEGA share an optical telescope to relay probe beam and optical signals to their respective detectors. The telescope, originally optimized for 532 nm, was redesigned to provide better performance for 600 to 900 nm and include a baffle system that reduces signal from outside the field of view. This poster provide an overview of these refinements and an update on recent calibrations.
