High-power energy source, based on MC-1 cascade generator

Possibility of modification of MC-1 cascade generator of 10 MOe range reproducible magnetic fields in order to convert it into high-power electromagnetic energy source, providing more than 50 MJ with energy density of /spl sim/0.2 MJ/cm/sup 3/ in the volume by a diameter about 2 cm and length of /spl sim/1 m, is considered for the first time. Such a generator could be useful for investigations of dense magnetized plasma, interaction of charged particle beams with magnetic field and plasma, studying of possibility of X-ray lasers creation and other processes, which require high electromagnetic field at simultaneously high values of its density.
