Abstract
- This paper shows the correlation of the characteristic Ne soft X-ray (SXR) signal pulse with computed dynamics of the plasma focus using doped neon in Ne (97.5%)/Kr (2.5%) admixtures. The Lee model code is coupled with a specifically designed correlation excel template. The results show that typically, the characteristic Ne SXR pulse signal starts after the start of the reflected shock (RS) and before the beginning of the pinch. Specifically, in the illustrated shot, the RS phase starts at $3.375~\mu \text{s}$ while the pinch phase starts at $3.384~\mu \text{s}$. The characteristic Ne SXR signal pulse starts at $3.377~\mu \text{s}$ , which is 2 ns after the start of the RS and 7 ns before the pinch starts. There is a consistent trend of Ne SXR correlation with the computed dynamics in the Ne doped with Kr admixtures up to a doping level of 2.5%. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
