Production of radioisotopes within a plasma focus device [PDF]
In recent years, research conducted in the US and in Italy has demonstrated production of radioisotopes in plasma focus devices, and particularly, on what could be termed "endogenous" production, to wit, production within the plasma it self, as opposed ...

Low-Energy Plasma Focus Device as an Electron Beam Source [PDF]
A low-energy plasma focus device was used as an electron beam source. A technique was developed to simultaneously measure the electron beam intensity and energy. The system was operated in Argon filling at an optimum pressure of 1.7 mbar.

Enhancing radiosensitivity of melanoma cells through very high dose rate pulses released by a plasma focus device. [PDF]
Radiation therapy is a useful and standard tumor treatment strategy. Despite recent advances in delivery of ionizing radiation, survival rates for some cancer patients are still low because of recurrence and radioresistance.

Evaluation of X-ray dose distribution in adult male and female organs due to plasma focus device function [PDF]
The X-ray dose and hard X-ray spectrum corresponding to a 2.5 kJ plasma focus device were investigated in the present work. The X-ray dose using Argon gas at a pressure of 0.8 mbar and a distance of 23 cm from the top of the anode was 0.8 mSv per shot ...
