Radiograph of a portion of a pair of 25-µm Al wires taken 72 ns after the start
of the LC1 current pulse (a), and a gray scale tracing across the image of the wire
on the left, (b). Notice that the wires have barely begun to expand, and that there
are bright (more exposed) boundaries along the sides of each wire image. The vertical
scale is linear with arbitrary units in part b.
