Abstract

The one-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic equations coupled with the time-dependent populations of the average ion model are numerically solved for an argon gas puff in a Z-pinch configuration. Time-dependent emission spectra are obtained and compared with experiment. There is agreement for the radiation emitted by the hot gas adjacent to the shock front and apparent disagreement for the cool, dense snowplowed gas adjacent to the outer boundary.
