Popis: We review the potential of x-ray scattering as a dense plasma diagnostic and present data taken from experiments in which x-ray scattering from dense plasmas is developed as a diagnostic tool. In one type of experiment the scattered photons are detected as a function of angle using direct detection onto a CCD chip. Such experiments are designed primarily to observe the static ion–ion structure factor, which is expected to dominate the scattering for moderate to high Z plasmas at a few electronvolts temperature. In a second type of experiment we have used a curved crystal to observe spectrally resolved x-ray scattering at a fixed angle. This experiment was designed to observe the dynamical structure factor of the plasma.
