In the plasma flash x-ray generator, a high-voltage main condenser of approximately 200 nF is charged up to 50 kV by a power supply, and electric charges in the condenser are discharged to an x-ray tube after triggering the cathode electrode. Flash x rays are then produced. The x-ray tube is a demountable triode connected to a turbo molecular pump with a pressure of approximately 1 mPa. As electrons from the cathode electrode are roughly focused onto a rod nickel target of 3.0 mm in diameter by the electric field in the x-ray tube, a weakly ionized linear plasma consisting of nickel ions and electrons forms by target evaporation. At a charging voltage of 50 kV, the maximum tube voltage was almost equal to the charging voltage of the main condenser, and the peak current was about 17 kA. When the charging voltage was increased, the linear plasma formed, and the intensities of K-series characteristic x rays increased. The K-series lines were quite sharp and intense, and hardly any bremsstrahlung rays were detected. The x-ray pulse widths were approximately 700 ns, and the time-integrated x-ray intensity had a value of approximately 30 μC/kg at 1.0 m from the x-ray source at a charging voltage of 50 kV.
