Summary form only given. We have developed and successfully operated a "gas anode" for use with z-pinch plasma radiation x-ray sources (PRS). The gas anode replaces the multiple solid anode-current- return rods of a standard PRS with a cylindrical shell of low atomic number gas. Beginning at the start of current flow, either via pre-ionization by UV flashboards or via high voltage breakdown,...
The axial magnetic field was applied to the Ar gas-puff z-pinch for the control of radial dynamics and x-ray emission from the plasma. The K-shell radiations of Ar ions were suppressed and the L-shell radiations were enhanced by the axial field. The suppression of m=0 mode instability was observed by using a framing camera. The characteristic pinch radius was compared with a simple model based on...
