The field-reversed configuration heating experiment (FRCHX) was designed to form closed-field-line magnetized target plasmas for magnetoinertial fusion and other high energy density plasma research. These plasmas are in a field-reversed configuration

In 1991, Turchi et al. reported evidence for a 2000 km/s aluminum plasma that originated from the upstream boundary of a wire array armature in a plasma flow switch (PFS). The 2008 article by Turchi et al. posits that if such high $Z$ plasma could in

The objective of the field-reversed configuration heating experiment (FRCHX) is to obtain a better understanding of the fundamental scientific issues associated with high-energy density laboratory plasmas (HEDLPs) in strong, closed-field-line magneti

We have developed an experimental test bed to characterize the performance of a laser-triggered spark-gap switch, particularly as it transitions from photoionization to current conduction. The switch is triggered by a focused 532-nm wavelength beam f

The AFRL Shiva Star capacitor bank (1300 μΡ, up to 120 kV) used typically at 4 to 5 MJ stored energy, 10 to 15 MA current, 10 μs current rise time, has been used to drive metal shell (solid liner) implosions for compression of axial magnetic field

Magnetized target fusion (MTF) is a means to compress plasmas to fusion conditions that uses magnetic fields to greatly reduce electron thermal conduction, thereby greatly reducing compression power density requirements. The compression is achieved b

We describe a physics scaling model used to design the high density field reversed configuration (FRC) at LANL that will translate into a mirror bounded compression region, and undergo Magnetized Target Fusion compression to a high energy density pla
