Abstract

New results of spectroscopical investigation of Plasma Focus discharges performed on the PF-1000 facility (IPPiLM, Warsaw) are presented. Two-dimensional space resolved K-sheel spectra of argon were registered using a mica crystal spectrometer of FSSR-2D type. The important role of the electron beam in forming of these spectra is shown. A modeling of the spectra by the collisional-radiative theory with inclusion of a non-Maxwellian component of the electron energy distribution explained quite well the obtained results.
