Results are presented from experimental studies of the formation of the superthermal electron component in a micropinch discharge plasma. Radiative collapse in a Z-pinch is found to affect the energy of the accelerated electrons. That the radiative collapse has been reached may be inferred from the energy of the emitted hard X-ray photons.
