The hollow electrode Z-pinch (HEZP) is expressed as a new shape of Z-pinch devices in which one of the electrodes is ring-shaped. The periodic time of the discharge current is $$35\ \mu \hbox {s}$$ 35μs with a total system inductance of 288 nH, total system resistance of $$14\ \hbox {m}\Omega $$ 14mΩ , and 34% deposited energy for a charging voltage of 8 kV. The pinch effect appears in the shape...
