Summary form only given. Fast z-pinches produce intense K-shell radiation from wire arrays and for Cu arrays these photon energies can exceed 8 keV Experimental investigations of pinches on ZR using Cu arrays have already begun and more are planned for the near future. However to produce significant K-Shell emissions from moderately high atomic number plasmas such as Cu, they must be rapidly ionized...
Summary form only given. Full understanding of the dynamics, population kinetics, and energy budget of a K-shell radiating Z-pinch remains a challenging problem in high energy density plasma physics. Recently, detailed axially-imaged spectroscopic measurements were performed on a Ne gas puff driven by the Weizmann generator (500 kA in 500 ns). The Gaussian line widths and measured energy input into...
Summary form only given. Accurate determination of atomic data that have significant effects on line emission is crucial for reliable X-ray diagnostics of laboratory Z-pinch and astrophysical plasmas. An adequate description of the dynamics of ionization and X-ray production requires an extensive amount of atomic data that include important collisional and radiative processes such as collisional excitation...
