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

Axial current discharges were used to implode spherical aluminum shells with thickness tapered to match the external magnetic pressure. These implosions were used to compress hydrogen plasmas with an initial pressure $g100\mathrm{bar}$ and an initial

We have magnetically driven a tapered-thickness spherical aluminum shell implosion with a 12.5 MA axial discharge. The initially 4 cm radius, 0.1 to 0.2 cm thick, [plus minus]45[sup [degree]] latitude shell was imploded along conical electrodes. The

In 1991, Turchi et al. [1] reported evidence for a 2,000 km/s aluminum plasma that originated from the upstream boundary of a wire array armature in a plasma flow switch (PFS) [2]. The 2008 article by Turchi et al. [3] posits that if such high Z plas
