Investigation of strong interactions between light nuclei at superlow energies using Z-pinch plasma flow

Summary form only given, as follows. The goal of the present investigation is to measure cross sections for the reactions between light nuclei in the energy range 100-2000 eV using intense nanosecond ion beams produced by means of liner plasma. The experiments of this project will allow unique information on characteristics of nuclear reactions between light nuclei at superlow collisions energies. With classical accelerator it is actually impossible to get accelerated particle beams that are intense enough to measure extremely small cross sections of the reactions in question (/spl sigma/
