Abstract
The spectrum of the synchrotron radiation emitted by the hot‐electron plasma produced in the University of Maryland pulsed magnetic mirror compression experiment has been measured in the 3.0‐cm to 0.3 mm wavelength region. The measured spectra are compared with those calculated using a theoretical model for the electron distribution function that conserves the magnetic moments of the trapped electrons during magnetic compression of the hot electron plasma.
