Anode geometry and focus characteristics

An analysis of data for plasma focus devices in their wide range of sizes has been made. The data show that for neutron optimized operation all plasma focus devices have the same peak axial sheath velocity of 10 cm/us or a little less, driven by a standard value of characteristic current per unit an...

description An analysis of data for plasma focus devices in their wide range of sizes has been made. The data show that for neutron optimized operation all plasma focus devices have the same peak axial sheath velocity of 10 cm/us or a little less, driven by a standard value of characteristic current per unit anode radius I/a of 250 kA/cm.
