Many laboratories are actively investigating radiation spectra emitted from high temperature/high density plasmas produced using gas-puff Z-pinch machines and high power lasers. Spectral-line intensities from these plasmas can be useful temperature and density diagnostics. In a well-diagnosed plasma, information on the emission spectrum can also be used to test the accuracy of theoretical rate coefficients.

Recently time-resolved spectra from an oxygen-like argon plasma produced in a gas-puff z-pinch were measured in the wavelength range 150–200 Å . Over this wavelength range the spectrum contains mostly the Δn = 0 (L-shell) transitions in ArX-ArXIV and some weak transitions for n = 3 to n = 4 of ArVI-ArVIII. The measured spectra show the predominance of 0-like Ar L-shell transitions.
