Abstract
Analysis of an x-ray imaging system employing ellipsoid and hyperboloid mirrors that are confocal and coaxial indicates that spatial resolution of 1–3 μm can be obtained. The useful field of view is hundreds of microns, and the collecting solid angle is at least 103 times that of a pinhole camera. The instrument has application to the diagnostics of laser-pellet interactions.
