Energy conversion efficiency of electrical exploding foil accelerators
We evaluate the energy conversion efficiency of an electrical exploding foil accelerator that accelerates a thin dielectric foil (called the flyer) to more than 1 km/s, which is propelled by electrically exploded bridge material. The effective flyer mass ejected from the accelerator is estimated by...
