A series of Al/Mg nested wire array Z-pinch load experiments has been recently performed on the refurbished Z accelerator. The earlier comparison study of the results from ID and 2D radiation MHD simulations of the Sandia Z1907/1908 experiments [Y. K. Chong, et. al, APS09] has shown that, in addition to the substantial difference in the prediction capability of the ID and 2D models, the radiation...
Summary form only given. EUV spectroscopy is a feasible tool for diagnosing of Z-pinch plasma before and after stagnation in complement to X-ray spectroscopy, which is conventionally used in studying of the stagnating hot dense plasmas. A collection of aluminum EUV spectra from implosions of traditional cylindrical wire arrays and new planar wire arrays (PWA) on the 1 MA Zebra generator at UNR are...
An alternative concept for fusion energy production is magnetized target fusion using metal liners to compress a mixture of magnetic flux and plasma fuel. In liner flux compression experiments, megagauss fields are produced at peak compression that heats the surfaces of aluminum walls of the liner cavity. Some radiation magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) modeling indicates that plasma formation should occur...
