(fig.1.5) is shown, which was obtained with an<br />

exposure time of 50 µs.<br />

An x-ray pinhole camera based on this detector has<br />

been tested on FTU in a preliminary configuration.<br />

The detector’s optical view is limited to roughly one<br />

third of the plasma minor radius. The system has been<br />

then tilted to investigate the intermediate radial<br />
