Abstract
Dense Z-pinch experiments were carried out on the S-300 generator (3.5 MA, 100 ns, 0.15 O) at the Kurchatov Institute in Moscow. The experiments were performed at a peak current of 2 MA with a rise time of about 100 ns. The Z-pinch was formed from a deuterated polyethylene fibre of 100 mm diameter and 1 cm length. The optical emission began early in the discharge and the coronal plasma expanded with a radial velocity of about 2x106 cm s[?]1. The optical and XUV emission continued for several hundreds of nanoseconds. The peak power of sub-keV radiation reached 30 GW near the maximum current. The total emitted energy exceeded 5 kJ. The neutron yield from the D-D reaction reached 2x107 per shot. The mean energy of neutrons obtained from time-of-flight analysis in the axial (downstream) direction was near 2.45 MeV.
