Zusammenfassung: | Small-aspect-ratio cylindrical liner implosion on timescales of the order of hundreds of nanoseconds is important in the fields of high-energy-density physics, implosion dynamics, and inertial confinement fusion. This paper describes the design and development of a cylindrical liner load that has a low inductance and uniform magnetic field and its application in the CQ7 compact pulsed power generator. The dynamic response properties and implosion symmetry of liners with aspect ratios ranging from 5 to 9 are investigated. The experimental results show that the azimuthal symmetry of the liner remains intact, and that a liner with an inner diameter of 6.2 mm and a thickness of 0.4 mm can be accelerated up to 10 km/s before the reflected beam is lost. The demonstrated high performance of the experimental technique used for imploding the liner could be beneficial for studying the implosion and dynamics of materials on compact pulse power generators in the future. |
