are exploded by a large current pulse driven by a low inductance source, is a good source of soft x-ray radiation in the energy range of 100 eV to 10 keV. The geometry of the crossed wire load ensures ...
heating/quenching rates (dT/dt~109 K/s) of the exploding conductor. In this study, experiments were performed with fine metallic wire exploding in liquid nitrogen (liq N2, 77 K) under different applied ...
-fed (π≳2.5 µsec) inductive accumulator, an exploding - wire interrupter, fast forming lines, and a transmission line terminating in a vacuum diode. The performance of a subterawatt generator ...
objects as sparks and electrically exploded wires with exposures of a microsecond or less. 528 October 2, 1948 Vol. 162 NATURE It can be shown mathematically that for a mag contributions : the irreversible ...
triggering wire about 280 m above ground level. All but the bottom 17 m of wire exploded (became luminous) 37.6 ms after UPL initiation. A stepped leader initiated, likely from the top of the wire remnants ...
In previous work, commercially available downward facing exploding bridgewire detonators (EBWs) were exposed to elevated temperatures. These detonators were then initiated using a firing set which ...
combined with the longer pulses typical of the largest short pulse lasers. After irradiating the wire array with 100 J, 600 fs ultra-high-contrast laser pulses focussed to $>10^{20}$ W/cm$^{2}$ at the Orion ...
backlighting imaging. The generators current pulses had amplitude 300 kA and rising time 180 ns with a low inductance load. Four crossed molybdenum wires with diameter of 25 m were used to form an x-pinch. Using ...
