The spatial resolution and imaging properties of this detector have been studied in this work for conditions of high counting rates and high gain, with the detector fully illuminated by very intense x-ray sources (laboratory tube and tokamak plasma).</jats:p> Ultrafast soft x-ray two-dimensional plasma imaging system based on gas electron multiplier detector with pixel readout Review of Scientific Instruments
