Individual wires in a z-pinch were replaced with twisted pair “cables” of similar linear mass on the COBRA pulsed power generator, resulting in peak power and yield increases in radiation above 1 keV. A cable is defined here as two or more fine wires twisted together to form a continuous strand with a wavelength (λt) dependent on the twists per unit length. The magnitude of λt appears to play a strong role in these increases, with the largest gains found for a λt of ≈0.75 mm.
