Description

The effect of the direction of a preionization current on the generation of 469-A X-ray emission from the plasma of a fast capillary discharge in argon was studied experimentally in the SIGNAL facility (the discharge current I = 25-40 kA and the current rise rate dI/dt ∼ 1012 A/s). The experiments were performed with 3.1-mm-diameter 157-mm-long ceramic capillaries filled with argon at a pressure of 0.2-1.0 Torr
