Abstract :
Summary form only given. This paper concerns studies of pulsed ion streams emitted from outlets of plasma-focus (PF) machines. Also presented are investigations of fast electron beams emitted in the upstream direction. Results obtained with different PF facilities of energy ranging from several kJ to about 500 kJ, are summarized. Attention is brought to PF experiments performed at two Polish laboratories: the Andrzej Soltan Institute for Nuclear Studies in Swierk by Warsaw, and the Institute of Plasma Physics and Laser Microfusion in Warsaw.
