Abstract
An experimental investigation is made of x-ray bremsstrahlung in the 2–10 keV range of a pulsed discharge under electron cyclotron resonance conditions in a straight magnetic mirror system pumped by a high-power millimeter radiation beam. The plasma temperature and density were determined from the spectrum and intensity of the x-rays. The results indicate that a quasi-gasdynamic plasma confinement regime is achieved.
