EMIR-M installation in the mode of operation with plasma opening switch

The EMIR-M generator is modified to perform a series of experiments to explore the Plasma Opening Switch (POS). Results of the first experiment with POS are described. EMIR-M operates in two different modes: first one, with Marx generator voltage of 0.95 MV and current of 300 kA; second one, 1.42 MV...

Zusammenfassung:The EMIR-M generator is modified to perform a series of experiments to explore the Plasma Opening Switch (POS). Results of the first experiment with POS are described. EMIR-M operates in two different modes: first one, with Marx generator voltage of 0.95 MV and current of 300 kA; second one, 1.42 MV and 460 kA, correspondently. Vacuum diode and inductance (short-circuit diode) was used as a load. PIN-diodes and TLD detectors are used for radiation parameters measurements. The results have been obtained: voltage gain of 2.6; maximum conduction time of 2.3 /spl mu/s; Current rise rate up to 3.10/sup 1/3 A/s with front duration of 10/spl divide/13 ns has been measured.
