Fast NISM InP detectors for measurement of X-ray emission from laser plasmas

Measurements of intense short x-ray pulses with the use of a photoconducting InP detector are reported The source of the x-ray pulses is plasma generated by a I #kJ laser in Prague (the PALS), The detector is fabricated on a semiinsulating material. The contribution contains a description of the whole detection system as well as the methods usedfor testing.
