Abstract

A radiation source has been developed on the 20-MA Z facility that produces a high power x-ray pulse (9.7±1.8 TW, 52±10 kJ), generated primarily from the interior of an imploding dynamic-hohlraum target centered along the z-axis, The radiation pulse, characterized here together with its underlying dynamics, is used for performing radiation-flow and ICF experiments with drive temperatures in excess of 200 eV.
