Abstract
We present recent results from hot spot investigations in imploding Al wire array z‐pinches on the COBRA generator at Cornell University using x‐ray diagnostics. Measurements of the temporal and spatial distribution of hot spots in stagnating plasmas by an x‐ray streak‐camera are included. Experiments show that hot spots have nanosecond lifetime and appear randomly along the array axis after plasma stagnation in secondary pinches in 8 mm diameter and during plasma stagnation in the arrays with 4 mm diameter.
