Laser pumping by intense discharges in z-pinch geometry.
Optical properties of high-current, low-pressure, noble-gas discharges in z-pinch geometry are studied and compared with theta-pinch discharges and standard commercial light sources. Results indicate possible usefulness in systems where high peak power, high repetition rates or high uv content are demanded.
