Gas-filled capsules are directly imploded by laser energies of 6.5 kJ with 8 laser beams at SG
Ⅲ prototype laser facility. Nine different types of diagnostic instruments are used in the
experiments, providing an understanding of the relevant target physics. The in-flight
dynamics of imploding capsules is measured by streaked x-ray radiography. And a new
developed 16-framed K-B x-ray framing camera is used to acquire 2D blow-off emission
images of the in-flight shell and asymmetric shapes of hot spots. The measured D-D neutron
yield of the gas-filled capsule is 1×108 at best shots, and decreases with the asymmetry of
in-flight shell, which is meanly decided by the laser spot distribution at the capsule surface.
