Hot dense capsule implosions driven by [Formula presented]-pinch x rays have been measured using a [Formula presented] dynamic hohlraum to implode 1.7–2.1 mm diameter gas-filled CH capsules. The capsules absorbed up to [Formula presented] of x rays. Argon tracer atom spectra were used to measure the [Formula presented] electron temperature and the [Formula presented] electron density. Spectra from multiple directions provide core symmetry estimates. Computer simulations agree well with the peak emission values of [Formula presented], [Formula presented], and symmetry, indicating reasonable understanding of the hohlraum and implosion physics. © 2004 The American Physical Society.
