Abstract
The National Ignition Facility neutron imaging system (NIS) is an important diagnostic for understanding ignition experiments at the NIF in late 2010. The goal of the diagnostic is to provide spatially resolved information on the production of prompt and scattered neutrons from imploded ignition targets. This information may be used to diagnose hohlraum drive symmetry and pointing conditions, or study the dynamics of DT burn within the ICF target. In this paper we will discuss NIF relevant neutron imaging issues, goals, and current requirements.
