Estimation of plasma parameters of X-pinch with time-resolved x-ray spectroscopy
Matter and Radiation at Extremes, 2023 We estimate the parameters of a Cu plasma generated by an X-pinch by comparing experimentally measured x-rays with synthetic data. A filtered absolute extreme ultraviolet diode array is used to measure time-resolved x-ray spectra with a spectral ...
