Abstract

Previously, we discussed the effect of partial trapping and X-ray bursts with energies less than or of the order of Kα–Pd in a dense interelectrode polydisperse medium of a nanosecond vacuum discharge (NVD) with an anode made from Pd tubes. In this work, we present and simulate an experiment in an NVD with an iron anode, where both the release and trapping of the X-ray radiation by the interelectrode medium of Kα‒Fe quanta, the energy of which is more than three times lower than in palladium, is observed. This indicates that the required energy of hard quanta in X-ray bursts, which is close to the Kα line, can be obtained by choosing the anode material.
