Long-implosion plasma radiation source development
1998
We have created large diameter, long implosion time, PRS loads that produce a stable pinch and a narrow X-ray pulse. Operation scaled successfully with current from 2 MA on DM2 to 6 MA on Saturn. The K-shell yields are comparable to those produced by short-pulse operation at a similar current. This approach, therefore, allows substantial savings to be realized in the pulsed-power driver cost, complexity and risk.
