Figure 7
(a) Illustration showing the foil-holding cassette used in the experiments performed at APS and the frame it mounts to, along with an exploded view showing how the various parts of the cassette assemble together to hold the foil specimens. The frame attaches to a motorized positioning stage, allowing the samples to be positioned precisely with respect to the X-ray beam. The connector on the left-hand side of the cassette attaches the cassette to the foil ignition box via a 15-conductor cable. Ball detents in the frame ensure repeatable positioning of the cassette in the frame. (b) Detailed view (not to scale) of the foil-holding cassette. The X-rays enter the upstream side of the cassette through the 0.125 inch × 0.0625 inch rectangular hole, scatter off the foil and exit through the 0.4375 inch circular hole in the downstream side of the cassette.
