RESUMO
Occultations are routinely used to derive information about astronomical objects. Here an occultation scheme is used to derive a fully time-resolved estimate of the x-ray emitting diameter of a z pinch. By using different filtrations on the sensors, one could for example, distinguish the size of the K-line emitting region compared to the higher energy K-continuum emitting volume. Or with suitable apertures and detector arrays, the pinch diameter could be axially and temporally resolved.
