GAMBLE-II Imploding Sodium Plasma. II. Uniformly Filled Z-Pinch.
Abstract
The dynamics and radiative properties of a GAMBLE II imploded uniformly sodium z pinch plasma are described. Parameters for the initial plasma have been carefully chosen to coincide with current experiments involving a capillary discharge. Results indicate that the sodium heliumlike resonance line achieves sufficiently high radiated flux levels to provide an interesting source of radiation for fluorescence and x-ray laser experiments with a comparison neon plasma. Keywords: Z pinch; Sodium plasma.
