We have built a pinhole camera for imaging the deuterium-tritium (DT) burn region of laser-driven implosions by spatially resolving the α particles. Kodak Pathe LR-115 cellulose nitrate film was used as a detector with an 8-mg/cm2 Ta filter. Initial results show that the α particles are produced in a region which is much smaller than the initial glass microsphere.
