Diagnostics of stable wire corona generated by small Z-pinch

In this paper, the results of a XUV PIN diode and spectrometer diagnostics of the non-thermal XUV emission from a carbon wire corona are presented at the 200 J energy Z-pinch discharge, in the case when the central axis rest of the wire remains in solid state. 60% of the total radiated energy of 160 mJ is emitted in the window of 17-35 nm. The XUV spectrometer temporal resolving diagnostics enabled to determine: the presence of OVI, OV, OIV and CIV ions, electron temperature 10 eV from OVI ions and no-Boltzmann intensities of OV and OIV lines.
