Analysis is presented that shows that the paper by Ruskov et al. [Phys. Plasmas 28, 112701 (2021)] gives incorrect physical interpretations to liner-on-plasma computational results and has mathematical deficiencies in the computational approach. The

Analysis is presented that shows that the recent paper by Ruskov et al. [Phys. Plasmas 27, 042709, (2020)] has a number of errors. In particular, it is shown that the Mach2 code, as used in the paper, behaves in a number of nonphysical ways.

Twenty-five years ago, on September 22, 1993, an event, unprecedented in the nuclear age, took place at Arzamas-16, Russia, as the All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of Experimental Physics (VNIIEF) and the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL

Previously published calculations predict that the “staged z-pinch” (SZP) can achieve 400 MJ of fusion yield on a Z-class machine. The SZP is touted to need no external preheat mechanism and no external pre-magnetization method. Instead, it is cl

A series of experiments to study the behavior of thick wires (0.5-2 mm in diameter) driven by currents of about 1 MA has recently been conducted on the Zebra facility at the University of Nevada, Reno. The objective of these experiments was to study

Post-Cold War “lab-to-lab” collaborations on unclassified scientific issues between U.S. and Russian nuclear weapons laboratories set the stage for bilateral cooperation in materials control and other nuclear areas. They also became the major ele

We apply a few simple first-principles equations to identify the parameter space in which controlled fusion might be possible. Fundamental physical parameters such as minimum size, energy, and power as well as cost are estimated. We explain why the f

The effect of sheared flows on the m = 0 instability development in a z-pinch is numerically investigated using a 2D magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) code. The behavior of both internal and free-boundary modes is studied by using two types of initial config

Instabilities can affect the quality of flux compression and other high-current experiments. The modeling of such experiments involves a number of numerical difficulties. One such difficulty is the selection of proper material property models. This p
