  • Abstract
    X-pinch radiography data are presented for wire array Z-pinches in which the wires initially have an imposed modulation. Calibrated data indicate a sharp contrast between the initially thicker regions of the wire, which remain intact, and the thinner regions which become fully depleted of material.
