Parameters calculation and design of vacuum camera for «Plasma focus» facility

Study Neutron Emission in Plasma Focus Device by Silver Activation Method

“…The insulator used is a 31 mm long ceramic. The energy storage system of the PF-4 includes a capacitor bank of capacitance 20 F with a working voltage of 10-20 kV and 2.6-280 nH [7,9]. High voltage is switched using a controllable discharger (air-filled).…”

“…The Neutron activation method and silver activation detectors are widely used in measurements of neutron yield and neutron flux parameters in plasma focus. In practice, it is the only method that allows measurements of neutron field parameters in a wide energy range (from thermal to 20 MeV) [9]. The activation method is widely used as a diagnostic technique for neutron yield registered in pulsed thermonuclear sources.…”

The plasma parameters and neutron yield at device of "Plasma focus"

“…The indices "one stroke" and "two strokes" refer respectively to the parameters for indium isomers In 116 and In 116m or the isotopes Ag 108 and Ag 110 . Description of other parameters in the formula (6) is given in [8,9].…”

“…There is more than a dozen PF set up in the world: the PF-1000 set up (Warsaw, Poland) has a capacity of 1 MJ, the Tulip plasma set up with power from 4 kJ to 0.4 MJ (Moscow, Russia), and others [7][8]. Previously, the authors conducted experiments on a pulsed plasma accelerator PF-30.…”
