Radiograph of a pair of 12.7-µm Al wires 224 ns after the start of the current
pulse on a pulse in which an Al step wedge was included in the path between the
x-ray backlighter and the film. The Al thicknesses of the successive steps in
the step wedge are shown to the right. The mass per unit length in the wire
cores at two points along each wire is indicated to the left of the radiograph.
