Fig. 6: Filament wavelength conservation through the X-ray imaging system.
From: Time-resolved X-ray imaging of the current filamentation instability in solid-density plasmas
X-rays propagating along z through a forest of filaments of length Lz (a) conserve the filament wavelength in its 2D projection (b). This is further demonstrated by taking a 1D lineout of the projected 2D density distribution and comparing it to the input signal for the 3D filament forest (c). Additionally, the filament wavelength is conserved in the phase dominated diffraction signal (d) obtained from synthetic 2D X-ray images.
