The Dense Plasma Focus as a Source of Neutrons
1983The neutron economy of a fusion-fission hybrid system with a plasma focus acting as a source of fusion neutrons is considered. After an outline of the essential features of the plasma focus device, the potential scale of neutron yield is examined and the electrotechnical, heat-transfer, and tritium-containment systems of a “zero-breeding assembly” are ...

The Fuego Nuevo II dense plasma focus
IEEE Conference Record - Abstracts. 1996 IEEE International Conference on Plasma Science, 1996Summary form only given, as follows. A new dense plasma focus device, named Fuego Nuevo II, has been built at the ICN-UNAM, its goal is to help to understand the physics of accelerated ion beams, X-rays, and their role in neutron pulse generation. The purpose of this report is to show the initial results, obtained at early operation.

Gas-injection Experiments On A Dense Plasma Focus
Proceedings of 1994 IEEE 21st International Conference on Plasma Sciences (ICOPS), 2005Rockford Technology Associates, Inc. (RTA) has been doing experiments on the Dense Plasma focus (DPF) device at the Fusion Studies Laboratory of the University of Illinois. This DPF consists of four racks of five 2-{mu}F capacitors whose charge is switched onto the inner electrode of a plasma focus by four Trigatron spark gaps.

Comparisons of dense-plasma-focus kinetic simulations with experimental measurements
Physical Review E, 2014Dense-plasma-focus (DPF) Z-pinch devices are sources of copious high-energy electrons and ions, x rays, and neutrons. The mechanisms through which these physically simple devices generate such high-energy beams in a relatively short distance are not fully understood and past optimization efforts of these devices have been largely empirical.

Numerical parameter studies for the dense plasma focus
Plasma Physics, 1975The magnetohydrodynamic equations are solved using an explicit numerical scheme for the focus geometry together with the electrical circuit equation. The influence of varying circuit parameters, focus apparatus dimensions and filling pressure on the discharge characteristics, especially the maximum current, and the plasma variables in the pinch phase ...

Redirection of Current in a Dense Plasma Focus
The Mission Support & Test Services (MSTS) reports that significant amounts of energy needed for generating high energy neutrons is lost within a Dense Plasma Focus between its pinch-end of the anode stalk and at its base near the insulating sleeve. It is their mission and the goal of this research effort to both experimentally and theoretically study ...openaire +1 more source
