Abstract

During the last 20 years, VNIIEF has been studying the compression of liners accelerated under the effect of pressure by a powerful azimuth magnetic field formed by powerful explosive magnetic generators. The research is carried out in applications to create sources of soft X-rays of megajoule level and to obtain a hot thermonuclear plasma. During the experiments, condensed (speed-10 km/s) and plasma liners (at speeds up to some tens km/s) have been studied. To measure the dynamical characteristics of the liners (speed, longitudinal and angular asymmetry etc.) various probes were developed: electrocontact, light, manganin, piezoelectric, and inductive. In this report examples of the use of these probes in experimental studies of condensed and plasma liner compression are presented
