This paper is a sequel to the 1998 review paper “Scientific status of the Dense Plasma
Focus” with 16 authors belonging to 16 nations, whose initiative led to the establishment of …

We present the first experimental results obtained using Singer product apertures. We image
X-rays scattered from spherical aluminium targets, using a Crypix detector. Despite the …

Coded aperture imaging (CAI) based on the modified uniformly redundant array (MURA)
has been successfully applied in far-field imaging to locate possible weak radioactive …

We introduce the new concept of a row-spaced mask, where a number of blank rows are
interposed between every pair of adjacent rows of holes of a conventional cyclic difference …

The coded aperture imaging (CAI) technique has been used to investigate the spatial
distribution of DD fusion in a 1.6 kJ plasma focus (PF) device operated in, alternatively, pure …

We classify all coded masks onto which cyclic difference sets can be wrapped periodically
using a generalization of the Finger and Prince construction. In particular, we establish …

Laser-plasma x-ray sources have garnered interest from various communities due to their
ability to generate high photon-energies from a small source size. The passive imaging of …

Rapid advancement is being made in laser driven x-ray and particle sources, pushing the
boundaries in temporal duration, spatial and spectral distribution, and maximum energy …

The deuterium-deuterium (DD) fusion neutron yield and anisotropy were measured on a
shot-to-shot basis for the NX2 plasma focus (PF) device using two beryllium fast-neutron …

A fast (100 MHz) 1D coded aperture visible light camera has been developed as a prototype
for imaging plasma experiments in the EUV/X-ray bands. The system uses printed patterns …
