Abstract :
In the Russian State Research Center, Troitsk Institute of Innovation and Fusion Research, the first two power-amplifier cascades of the MOL stand are put into operation. This paper presents the description of the stand stages and the results of experiments on the current amplification. In the experiment, under the MOL´s charging current of 20 kA, the second-stage output current of 1.6 MA was obtained.
