“…Wire array z-pinch plasmas are powerful and efficient soft x-ray radiators used for research in inertial confinement fusion (ICF), radiation physics, laboratory astrophysics and other high energy density sciences [1,2]. The phases of the pinch are: initial ablation, melting and vaporization of the wires, coronal plasma expansion, merging of the individual plasmas, a subsequent implosion exhibiting Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities, and finally, the stagnation phase (pinch) [3].…”

A Johann-type crystal spectrometer combined with the x-ray PIN diodes has been developed for measuring the time-resolved K-shell line emissions of the imploding Al wire array. The PIN diodes are positioned on the Rowland circle to aim at the spectral lines with the matching Bragg angles. Four typical channels respectively keyed to the Al ion hydrogen-like (H α , 0.7171 nm and H β , 0.6052 nm) and helium-like (He α , 0.7757 nm and He β , 0.6634 nm) resonance lines are designed. The signal ratio of the H α line to the He α line is used to restore the time-dependent electron temperature. The designing principle of the spectrometer is described and the preliminary experimental results on the "Yang" accelerator are presented and analyzed.
