Low timing-jitter pulsed hard x-ray photography by laser-plasma-triggered electron beam

We have developed the stress-strain in-situ measurement system of rotating object with a low timing-jitter pulsed x- ray source triggered by a laser plasma and the triggering jitter of the pulsed x-ray was less than 2nsec. This technique was applied to measure the lattice constant variation of a rotating sample under the influence of stress caused by a centrifugal force.© (2001) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
