Cylindrical reflex triodes (CRTs) driven by a pulsed power generator can produce relatively low-endpoint X-ray spectra (~250 keV) that can be suitable for certain radiation–matter interaction studies. CRTs have several advantages over other reflex

Fisher and collaborators at the University of California, Irvine, invented the gas puff $Z$ -pinch in the late 1970s using a 200-kA generator. The implementation of gas puffs as a copious source of X-rays has encountered major challenges, such as dis

We report on a collaborative test campaign conducted at the Naval Research Laboratory's Mercury pulsed power facility in December of 2012. The experiment sought to use Mercury in the Intense Pulsed Active Detection (IPAD) [1] mode to interrogate a fi

Active interrogation is a method used to enhance the likelihood of detection of shielded special nuclear material (SNM); an external source of radiation is used to interrogate a target and to stimulate fission within any SNM present. Radiation produc

There is an interest in 10 keV to 100 keV radiation sources for some types of radiation-interaction studies. The approach presented here uses non-thermal radiation from single-wire radiators (SWRs). An SWR is a high-Z exploding wire that produces man

This paper analyzes the Intense Pulsed Active Detection (IPAD) approach for active detection of fissile material, highlights some of its merits, and compares it to the multiple-pulse-train LINAC approach. In both cases, bremsstrahlung photons are use

The plasma-filled rod-pinch diode (PFRP) is a new X-ray source appropriate for pulsed hydrodynamic radiography with endpoint voltage in the 1-2 MV range. The use of a plasma prefill in a rod-pinch-electrode configuration results in intense concentrat
