摘要: A pinch-reflex ion diode is fielded on the pulsed-power machine Mercury (R. J. Allen, et al., 15th IEEE Intl. Pulsed Power Conf., Monterey, CA, 2005, p. 339), which has an inductive voltage adder (IVA) architecture and a magnetically insulated transmission line (MITL). operated in positive polarity resulting layered MITL flow as emitted electrons are born at different potential each of cavities. The usual method for estimating by measuring bound current cathode anode not accurate with flow, interaction pinched-beam load been studied previously. Other methods determining applied, performance experimentally characterized evaluated, circuit particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations performed. Results indicate that couples efficiently to operating about 3.5 MV total 325 kA, 70 kA 60 proton current. It also found impedance half vacuum impedance.
