摘要: An ion diode having many characteristics desirable for beam fusion is described. These features include bunching, excellent impedance match to the pulser, self‐magnetic insulation of electrons, and selectable species. The accomplishes this by employing a series magnetic field coil an initial plasma fill. configured in such way as give uniform electron loss current density over entire anode. Data are presented show experimental agreement with model.
