The use of the recombination continuum for X-ray radiation production in Z-pinches is discussed as an option for generating high yields in the warm photon energy range, $\hslash \omega \gt 10$ keV. The free-bound direct-recombination continuum emission is an inherently weaker radiation production mechanism than the resonant-line emission. However, it is challenging, if at all possible, to heat s...Show More

Detailed analysis of both the line-intensity ratios and line shapes of the K-lines of elements of different abundances (Fe, Cr, Ni, and Mn) emitted from the stagnation of a steel wire-array implosion on Z, were used to determine the line opacities. While the opacities at the early time of stagnation appear to be consistent with a nearly uniform hot-plasma cylinder on-axis surrounded by a colder an...Show More

In Z-pinch implosions, K-shell radiation often comes from isolated bright spots, whose density and/or temperature significantly differ from the background plasma parameters [1] - [3] . The prominence of bright spots in many radiating materials raises questions about the applicability of the analytical [4] and numerical predictions of K-shell yields that do not accurately describe small-scale radia...Show More

Analytical scaling models of K-shell radiation yield from the imploding Z-pinch plasma radiation sources (PRS) have been advanced at NRL. Those developed by Mosher-Krishnan-Qi, MKQ [1] , and Thornhill-Whitney-Giuliani, TWG [2] , are the best-known and most helpful. They predict the K-shell yield as a function of input parameters, such as load mass and the energy coupled to the radiating plasma. Th...Show More

In developing stainless-steel (SS) and copper wire-array X-ray sources on the Z machine, we consider the optimization of K-shell yield as a function of load height. Theory, numerical modeling, and experimental data suggest that an optimum exists corresponding to a tradeoff between the increase in radiating mass and the decrease in coupled current with increasing pinch height. A typical load height...Show More

Double Planar Wire Arrays (DPWA), which consist of two parallel rows of wires, have demonstrated high radiation efficiency (up to 30 kJ), compact size (1.5-3 mm), and pulse shaping capabilities in experiments at 1 MA Zebra. DPWAs are also very suitable for the new compact multi-source hohlraum concept. It was shown that their implosion dynamics strongly depends on the critical load parameter, the ...Show More

We report on experiments demonstrating the transition from thermally-dominated K-shell line emission to non-thermal, hot-electron-driven inner-shell emission for z pinch plasmas on the Z machine. We find preferential scaling of non-thermal line emission for atomic number Z=42 and higher (hν ≥ 17keV). Initial experiments with Mo (Z=42) and Ag (Z=47) have produced kJ-level emission in the 17-keV and...Show More

Argon gas puff implosions have been found to be an extremely efficient source of K-shell x-rays (3-4 keV) on the Z pulsed power facility at Sandia National Labs. producing over 300 kJ of K-shell emission in double-shell experiments. Experiments at Double Eagle [1] and Saturn [2] have previously found that adding a central jet of mass to their double-shell gas puff configurations increased the yiel...Show More

A comprehensive gas puff capability is being developed on the Z pulsed power generator. We describe the methodology employed for developing a gas puff load on Z, which combines characterization and modeling of the neutral gas mass flow from a supersonic nozzle, numerical modeling of the implosion of this mass profile, and experimental evaluation of these magnetic implosions on Z. We are beginning ...Show More
