Investigation of the radiation properties of L - and M -shell X -pinch plasma x-ray sources using a transmission grating spectrometer

A transmission grating spectrometer (TGS) with one dimensional spatial resolution was used to investigate the radiative properties of X -pinch plasmas produced using wires made of NiCr and CoNiCr alloys, and Mo . Experiments were carried out on the Cornell XP machine. The TGS was used to estimate of...

Description
Summary:A transmission grating spectrometer (TGS) with one dimensional spatial resolution was used to investigate the radiative properties of X -pinch plasmas produced using wires made of NiCr and CoNiCr alloys, and Mo . Experiments were carried out on the Cornell XP machine. The TGS was used to estimate of the energy yields of L -shell Cr and Ni , and M -shell Mo radiation. The absolute energy yields in the wavelength range 10
