Active image readout system for extreme neutron envirorments for NIF

The National Ignition Facility is expected to start producing x-ray flux and neutron yields higher than any produced in laser driven implosion experiments in the past. Tuning of non-igniting capsule will require x-ray imaging of near burning plasmas that are generating yields of 10$^{17}$ neutrons. X-ray recording systems need to work in more hostile conditions than we have encountered in past laser facilities. We will present modeling, experimental data, and design concepts for x-ray imaging with electronic recording systems for this environment.
