Abstract:

This report contains the results of theoretical investigations and analysis on issues concerned with the production, interpretation, and understanding of radiation generated from dense hot plasmas. In particular, the radiation from imploding hollow z-pinch plasmas and ion beam generated plasmas, the influence of radiation on the plasmas morphology, the x-ray conversion efficiency and spectral emission characteristics, dynamics of double gas puff implosions, imploding plasmas as opening switches, and analyses and interpretation of experimental results. Keywords Hydrodynamics and Electrical discharges. Author
