Abstract :
In SRC RF TRINITI the physics of radiating Z pinches for application as a source of x-ray for ICF target ignition are under investigation. Simultaneously the works on a designing the module of the generator “Baikal” [1] which should deliver the current pulse up to 50 MA as a driver for radiating Z pinch are designed by co-operation of the RRC the Kurchatov Institute, the SRC RF TRINITI, the SUE NIIFA and RFNC VNIITF. Experiments for study of the wire array compression are conducted on the largest in Russia laboratory source of pulsed electric power “Angara-5-1” installation.
