For microsecond pulses and peak currents up to 105 kA, the erosion rate, electrode profile, and electrode surface of molybdenum electrodes were investigated. The direction of electrode material transport was verified. The discharge behavior of molybd

During the early phase of the discharge (ignition), fast ionization waves are observed propagating with a velocity of 10/sup 6/ m/s from cathode to anode. During this transient phase, a first peak of an energetic electron beam develops. Simultaneousl

The dynamics of a fast Z‐pinch plasma lens was simulated with a one‐dimensional model for the phase of constriction. The calculation resulted in a realistic description—compared to experiment—of pinch dynamics and current density distribution

Focusing of heavy-ion beams is an important issue for ion beam-driven inertial confinement fusion. For the experimental program to investigate matter at high energy densities at GSI, the application of a plasma lens has attractive features compared t

We report results of the development of fast closing switches, so-called pseudospark switches, at Erlangen University. Two different parameter regimes are under investigation: medium power switches (32 kV anode voltage, 30 kA anode current and 0.02 C

The intention of this paper is to give an overview of recent experiments explaining the development and transition of the discharge phases in a pseudospark. The reported experiments include single gap pseudospark discharges in ultra-high-vacuum syste

To avoid the lowering of the holdoff voltage due to the electrode erosion in one stage high current pseudospark switches (PSS), a two stage PSS with no axial aperture in the intermediate electrode was tested. For investigations a pulse generator was

A fundamental problem of pseudospark switches is erosion in the borehole area. One way to reduce erosion is to distribute the current to several discharge channels. Essential for multichannel operation is a reliable ignition of all these channels. Th

The dynamics of a linear z-pinch discharge are studied. The magnetic field distribution inside the discharge tube was measured by small magnetic probes. It was found that after the maximum contraction of the plasma column, current loops are generated
