Summary form only given. We wish to maximize the K-shell yield from high-atomic-number Z pinches (photon energy of ~1-8 keV) and to develop Z-pinch-based concepts for sources of higher-photon energy (~8 to 40 keV). To achieve these goals, large-diameter implosions are needed to: (a) produce the high specific energy required to excite K-shell line radiation from high-atomic-number Z pinches, (b) properly...
Summary form only given. The 20-MA Z accelerator at Sandia National Laboratories has enabled high velocity (>50 cm/mus) implosions with masses greater than 500 mug/cm. Such implosions produce high temperature (>2 keV), high-density plasmas that are copious emitters of L- and K-shell X-rays these exceed the threshold of 100 kJ/cm3 to qualify as high energy density plasmas by an order of magnitude...
