Radiation from High Temperature Plasmas.

Abstract

This report presents analyses of the detailed physical processes of importance in imploding wire and gas puff plasmas. Accurate treatment of the atomic physics and radiation transport underlying the x-ray exchange and output is emphasized. Feedback coupling of radiation and hydrodynamics are examined through use of coupled radiation hydrodynamics codes and analysis of motional Doppler broadening of line radiation.
