Due to its high spatial and temporal resolution, optical probing is a very powerful technique for investigating the corona plasma of laser-heated targets. The basic requirements of optical probing systems are discussed and a short description of a system presently in use is given. Various experimental observations are presented of results obtained with this system on targets irradiated with long pulses of low (~ 10¹³W . cm-2) irradiance as are used in ablatively driven compression experiments. These show the presence of small-scale density and magnetic-field nonuniformities in the plasma corona.
