Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The results of experimental investigations into the dynamics of a plasma produced in the multiwire X pinch at currents up to 2.3 MA are presented. The materials, diameters, and the number of wires are varied. At such currents, the power of the soft x-ray radiation with the photon energy from 1 to 2 keV increases to 120 GW, and, since the size of a hot spot is less than 20 μm, it corresponds to a source brightness of ∼10 15 W/(cm 2 sr). The energy recorded in lines of neon-like molybdenum (in the range of 2.5–3 keV) is higher than 10 J. Hard x-ray radiation detected in experiments with tungsten and molybdenum X pinches has the photon energy ≥800 keV.
