We have recently designed and are building a telescope which acts as an imaging light collector relaying the image to an optical table for experiment dependent analysis and recording. The expected primary use of this instrument is a streaked optical pyrometer for witness plate measurements of the hohlraum drive temperature. The telescope is based on the University of Rochester's 10 in. manipulator (TIM) which allows compatibility between Omega, Trident, and the NIF lasers. The optics capture a f/7 cone of light, have a field of view of 6 mm, have a spatial resolution of 5-7 μm per line pair at the object plane, and are optimized for operation at 280 nm. The image is at a magnification of 11.7×, which is convenient for many experiments, but can be changed using additional optics that reside outside the TIM.
