Abstract | Summary form only given. It is well known that X pinches produce very small, dense plasma micropinches that emit short bursts of 1.5-8 keV radiation. Immediately after the softer X-ray burst, higher energy emission in the range 8-100 keV is seen and attributed to energetic electrons accelerated in the gaps that are visible in the X pinch structure in the images recorded using X pinch point projection radiography. Electron beam parameters in the X pinches (current, average energy, and divergence) were not previously measured. Such measurements on symmetric X pinches are compromised by strong absorption and electron scattering that occurs between the X pinch crossing point and the anode. Cold, relatively high density plasma fills this space as a result of the ablation of the wire cores. An asymmetric X pinch scheme that decreases plasma density and size along the path of propagation of the electron beam has been tested. In this configuration, the anode side of the X pinch was made 4-7 times shorter than the cathode side and the angle between wires was almost 180 deg. Electron beam parameters were determined using two low impedance coaxial Faraday cups (with the filter of the inner cup working as the collector for the outer one). The filters on these cups enabled simultaneous measurements of the beam current in two energv bands. For two-wire. 17 mum, asymmetric, tungsten X pinches the electron current reached 5-10 kA with a pulse duration of 3-5 ns and a peak electron energy of more than 80 keV. These electrons were emitted in a solid angle of about $10^{-2}$ steradians. In symmetrically configured X pinches the measured electron beam current is much less and has much higher divergence. The asymmetric configuration may also be useful for ion beam studies by reversing the pulse polarity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
