X-ray emission from copper X-pinches driven at a current rate of ∼1kA/ns

A characterization of Cu X-pinches experiments driven at current rates ∼ 1kA/ns is presented. The emission of two bursts of X-rays associated with hot-spot formation and electron beam-target mechanism are identified. The first burst, associated with the central hot-spot, appears consistently at curr...
