Details of the initial conditions and plasma volume play an important role in evolution of the Z-pinch gas puff implosion.1 Some of the ways this can happen are (1) the initial density profile of the gas used at the time of initiation of discharge influences subsequent evolution, including instabilities; (2) the initial inductance and other circuit parameters influence the amount of power delivered to the plasma at any given time; and (3) the specific geometry of the chamber influences the...
