  • Abstract
    Multiwire cables, defined as two or more fine wires twisted together to form a single continuous strand, are imaged using X-pinch radiography. The radiographs reveal axially repeating enhanced-density structures which appear to crisscross and dissipate into diffuse regions of lower density.
