Description

Gas-puff z-pinch plasma using Ne, Ar and Kr as pinch materials have been produced in the SHOTGUN device. The hardening of x-ray radiation with z of the operating gas was confirmed. The magnetic energy converted into the kinetic energy of the plasma increased with z of the gas. It is attributed to strong compression due to radiation cooling in the contraction phase. (author)
