Description

The X-ray output of an argon Z-pinch as a function of the radial gas distribution is measured. The tests utilized a large 12 cm diameter double-shell nozzle. The paper demonstrates that the K-shell yield has a broad optimum as the mass distribution becomes more peaked near the axis. Very high-quality K-emitting volumes were achieved

Abstract (Russian)

Измеряется выход рентгеновского излучения аргонового Z-пинча в зависимости от радиального распределения газа. В опытах использовалось большое (диаметр 12 см) сопло с двойной оболочкой. Показано, что выход излучения К-оболочек имеет широкий оптимум, когда распределение газа по массе имеет четко выраженный пик вблизи оси. Обнаружены объемы газа, характеризующиеся интенсивной К-эмиссией
