Abstract

In this paper, effective energy of pulsed X-Ray emitted from a Mather-type plasma focus device in stored energy of 2.5 kJ with six different anode's insert materials was measured using radiographic method with attenuation filters. Since intensity and energy of X-ray beam were considerably changed with changing the insert material, the method was improved by using different filters simultaneously in all the experiments and selection of the best filter in each experiment according to the appropriate criteria. Effective energy of pulsed X-ray beam was measured 16, 28, 50, 51, 34 and 44 keV when aluminum, copper, zinc, tin, tungsten and lead were used as insert materials, and aluminum, copper, silver, silver, copper and lead were used as filters, respectively.
