Description

The investigation of the spectral and amplitude characteristics of the X-ray radiation of the plasma focus facility PF-3 (Wmax = 2.8 MJ) has been done. A diagnostics set for X-ray measurements is described. The total energy radiated from the pinch in the spectral range 0.4 / 1.5 keV at the stored energy up to 1 MJ is approx 10 kJ. Registration of the X-ray radiation spectral structure in the Ne-discharge within the long wavelength spectrum part (approx 100 / 300 eV) have been first done at PF-3-facility. Conclusion about necessity to take into account this spectral range in the total balance of radiation energy has been done
