Low-energy plasma focus device as an electron beam source. [PDF]

ScientificWorldJournal, 2014
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]

PLoS One, 2018
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]

مجله علوم و فنون هسته‌ای, 2021
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 ...

Production of radioisotopes within a plasma focus device [PDF]

Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2005
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 ...

Influence of electrode geometry on X-ray emission, plasma inductance, voltage, and current derivative signals obtained from a plasma focus device

Results in Physics, 2021
Plasma focus devices have been investigated as a pulsed radiation source. Different studies have shown that the shape of the anode affects strongly the plasma dynamic and X-ray emission that takes place in plasma focus devices.
