Abstract

The X-ray emission from a 3.3 kJ dense plasma focus device filled with argon in the presence of an external axial magnetic field has been quantitatively measured for the first time with the help of a diode X-ray spectrometer. The X-ray energy and electron temperature estimated from signals are found to be lower with application of the external axial magnetic field. The variation of the electron temperature with pressure shows a maximum at 80 Pa and a decrease both with increase or decrease of the filling gas pressure.
