Abstract
This article describes a facility to examine the X-ray spectra of micr opinch-discharge plasmas and includes two multichannel X-ray scintilla tion spectrometers. The facility can take measurements for X-rays with energies from 2 to 400 keV and has a dynamic range of 10(11). The X-r ay spectra of the plasma in a z-pinch discharge are measured and analy zed as functions of the discharge current for different electrode mate rials.
