Abstract

The Nova laser at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has about 60 diagnostics in use on its two target chambers. The broad rationale for the diagnostics is explained. Recent developments in diagnostic techniques on Nova for implosions, soft x-ray studies, and x-ray laser applications are described.
