  • Abstract
    Recent theoretical and experimental studies of electron deposition in thin foils and targets are discussed with emphasis on enhancement of collisional deposition resulting from macroscopic self-beam and diode fields. The deposited power/mass ≡ PM was inferred to be PM ≅ 1-2 × 1012 watts/gm for experiments on Hydra (1 MeV, 300 KA, 100 nsec) and PM ≅ 4-16 × 1012 watts/gm on Proto I (1.5 MeV, 250 KA/side, 30 nsec). PM is found to depend critically on current density and enclosed current in the pinch as expected.
