Abstract
It is suggested that the resonant properties of a cylindrical microwave cavity containing a highly conducting axial plasma rod could be used to obtain information about the dynamic properties of such a plasma. Two applications of the method are considered: an investigation of electrically exploded wires, and a study of the dynamics of the conventional z-pinch during its initial stages.Keywords
