Kirkpatrick-Baez x-ray-microscope optimization for inertial-confinement-fusion applications [electronic resource]
Analytic approximations have been used to optimize single-channel and four-channel Kirkpatrick-Baez (K-B) x-ray microscopes in three ways: (I) for best effective solid angle at best resolution, (II) for best effective solid angle at a given resolution worse than the best; and (III) for best effectiv...

| Summary: | Analytic approximations have been used to optimize single-channel and four-channel Kirkpatrick-Baez (K-B) x-ray microscopes in three ways: (I) for best effective solid angle at best resolution, (II) for best effective solid angle at a given resolution worse than the best; and (III) for best effective solid angle at a specified breadth of field. All optimizations are also made consistent with clean channel response, to ensure that any high-energy second peak will be small compared with the primary channel response. This is achieved at a sacrifice of effective solid angle. We describe a cross-talk aberration not previously recognized in K-B x-ray microscopes. The analytic approximations presented in this paper, which desribe the optical and constructional parameter of optimized K-B x-ray microscopes, are intended to allow scaling and localization in parameter space from which detailed numerical calculations can be used to fine-tune a microscope design. |
