The plasma that accelerates and compresses in the formation of the pinch in dense plasma focus devices has been found to be an abundant source of multiple radiations like ion beams and x-rays. In this work, the ion beam and x-ray emissions from a 2.7 kJ (13.5 kV, 30 mu F) plasma focus device operate...
