Abstract

Experimental results on multi-wire liners powering from helical magneto-cumulative generators MCG-100 and MCG-200, equipped by explosive current opening switches, are presented. A current in a liner was 4 MA at a current rise time of 0.3.. .0.4 mus. A maximum yield of a soft X-ray radiation was more than 100 kJ at a temperature of a plasma pinch of 55 eV.
