Vacuum Spark

X-ray radiation is obtained from a point plasma produced by pinch effect Cohen et al. (1968) in a vacuum spark similar to that used by Lie and Elton (1971) with a 220 kA peak current. The extremely dense and hot minute plasma appears at a distance of 0.5 to 1 mm from the anode tip and has maximum dimensions of a few microns.The spectroscopic observations are performed by means of a focusing Cauchois spectrometer so as to avoid effects of fluctuations in the source position.

Vacuum Spark

The spectrum of the TFR Tokamak has been observed in the range 5-100 Å. Identification of Mo XIV to Mo XXXIII lines originating from the limiter was achieved by comparison with the Mo spectrum emitted from a low-inductance vacuum spark, and with relativistic calculations. Some of the TFR lines were identified as forbidden transitions (electric quadrupole). The appearance of these lines depending on plasma parameters is discussed.
