Abstract :
In this paper we develop an approach to the MHD of intense radiating plasma implosion, consider the structure of the magnetic field-outer surface plasma border and its stability with respect to thermal and Rayleigh-Taylor axial modes and its modification by the electromagnetic field diffusion and radiation cooling
