The effect of a gas type on the soft X-ray yield from a plasma focus
St. Petersburg Polytechnical University Journal: Physics and MathematicsUsing the Lee code version (RADPFV5.15de), we carried out a series of numerical experiments to find the parameters for the plasma focus and the soft X-ray yield for each of nitrogen gas (molecular) and neon gas (atomic) within an appropriate ...

FOTOGRAFÍAS TIPO SCHLIEREN DE UN PLASMA DE IONES METALICOS
Anales (Asociación Física Argentina), 2013 En el Z-Pinch denso "NOVA", funcionando como "vacuum-gap", se efectuó una serie sistemática de fotografías tipo schlieren del plasma. En esa forma de funcionamiento, la masa del plasma es la integrada por los iones metálicos desprendidos de los ...

Gas X-pinch: The progress, technology and results
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013 The plasma pinch on the basis of a gas jet with special density distribution is described. The gas jet was produced by means of a pulse gas valve with a nozzle that was capable of forming a gas flow with a maximum density in the center of the discharge ...

Time-resolved measurement of neutron energy isotropy in a sheared-flow-stabilized Z pinch
Nuclear FusionPrevious measurements of neutron energy using fast plastic scintillators while operating the Fusion Z Pinch Experiment (FuZE) constrained the energy of any yield-producing deuteron beams to less than 4.65 keV. FuZE has since been operated at increasingly
