The purpose of this GSP activity was to assess the capabilities of non-intrusive diagnostic techniques for internal measurements in ablative materials during PWT tests. This initial steps were to identify the measurements to be performed in relation with high-speed Earth re-entry, and to identify the accessible parameters as well as related diagnostics techniques. For this objective an extensive review of the possible measurement methods, with a focus on non-intrusive diagnostics, has been undertaken.
