Summary form only given. Nested wire arrays have been used to improve pinch quality and X-ray power. Numerical simulations suggest that the inner array acts to reduce the growth of the MHD Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instability present in the outer array p

S.I. Braginskii (1958) showed that the resistive collapse of a very fast spark discharge in a gas is governed in large part by the radial expansion of a cylindrical shock wave, which rapidly increases the cross-sectional area of the conducting channe
