A reliable method of roentgenography diagnostics has been employed to determine the localization,
form-factor and density of the relativistic plasma bunch generated under gyromagnetic autoresonance in a mirror magnetic trap.
The analysis of roentgenograms showed that a density of the bunch electron component reached 8×1010 cm-3
with average energy of electrons — hundreds of keV. The results obtained are in a good agreement with earlier experimentally and computer
simulation (PIC-method) results.
