Burn wave propagation in the isentropically compressed fuel is compared to propagation in fuel compressed by a standard current pulse. The results show that impurity doping strongly reduces the shell-density modulation and the instability growth rate.

This maximises the compression of the DT ice layer, and increases rho-r at stagnation. The B-Dot probes were an excellent source of data once the correct procedure for their analysis was determined.
The influence of the mass of deuterium shells on neutron emission times, neutron yields and neutron spectra was studied. Ultimate results in a 2J portable PF device as non radioactive neutron source for field applications are presented.

In the thin case the K-shell yield is about twice the 14 kJ yield seen for the non-local transport and the total peak power varies by an order of magnitude. Target modulations were seeded by laser nonuniformities and amplified during target acceleration by the RT instability. The amplitude of the initial imprint is reduced by a factor of 2.
We show how the current pulse can be shaped in order to isentropically compress the DT ice layer.

Outer, middle, and inner nozzle pulsijg were mm, 80 mm and 30 mm, respectively. Extreme degree of ionization in micro-capillary plasma columns heated by ultrafast current pulses Pulssing Rocca, Jing Li, Gonzalo Avaria, Michael Grisham, Fernando Tomasel, Vyacheslav Shlyaptsev The efficient generation of dense large-scale plasma columns with very high degree of ionization and high homogeneity can enable fundamental plasma studies and a variety of promising applications.
In addition, simulations have indicated that if the initiation points on the inner edge of the cathode are set too closely, filaments of current will collide chaotically, rather than emerging as isolated and identical mmach2, also impairing symmetrical compression. Magnetic field generation during the nonlinear phase of the Rayleigh--Taylor RT instability in an ablatively driven plasma using ultrafast laser-driven proton radiography has been measured.

Haines Magnetic field generation during mach22 nonlinear phase of the Rayleigh--Taylor RT instability in an ablatively driven plasma using ultrafast laser-driven proton radiography has been measured. We describe a method of isentropically compressing cryogenic Deuterium inside a metal liner. Understanding the mechanisms behind these high gradients is essential for optimizing the device for unique compact accelerator applications.
The purpose pulsign this study was to gather and analyze data taken from a laboratory Pulsed Plasma Accelerator to understand its operation, and also for future comparison of the experimental data with predictions made with computer simulations based on the codes named MACH2 and GEMS. Using this data and that of kach2 main Rogowski coil, a total resistance and a total inductance of the thruster was determined to be 0.

These are the first steps to enabling a technologically simple, compact, high-current, plasma-based accelerator. The experimental data show the hydrodynamic evolution of the target and MG-level magnetic fields generated in the broken foil.
These devices measure the time dependent current sheets, the electron number density, and the capacitor discharge pulsnig respectively. Design of the proper power system for an improved ablation-fed pulsed plasma microthruster PPT requires the ability to specify amplitudes, risetimes, waveforms and pulsetimes in relation to propellant properties and thrust chamber dimensions.

Modeling of ablation-fed pulsed plasma thrusters. We present a study investigating the initiation of plasma in solid, metallic liners where the liner thickness is large compared to the collisionless skin depth. The efficient generation of dense large-scale plasma columns with very high degree of ionization and high homogeneity can enable fundamental plasma studies and a variety of promising applications.
