A two-dimensional,radiation magneto-hydrodynamics model is applied to the simulation of Z-pinch plasma sausage instability.Different implosion mechanisms in the cases of the existence and the non-existence of instability are analyzed,and the effects of various initial density perturbation levels on the x-ray power and energy are investigated.Numerical results show that x-ray energy output is not susceptive to sausage instabilities in a certain extent but x-ray power versus time is evidently dependent on the instabilities.In addition,this paper also studies the effects of numerical treatment of extreme low density in Z-pinch simulations on numerical results.
