Popis: Argon gas puff implosions have been found to be an extremely efficient source of K-shell x-rays (3–4 keV) on the Z pulsed power facility at Sandia National Labs. producing over 300 kJ of K-shell emission in double-shell experiments. Experiments at Double Eagle [1] and Saturn [2] have previously found that adding a central jet of mass to their double-shell gas puff configurations increased the yield substantially.
