The notion of employing very high magnetic fields for fusion has been extended to so-called magnetized-target fusion (MTF), which may comprise both magnetic and inertial-confinement fusion schemes, and magneto-inertial fusion (MIF) in which the inert

The Stabilized Liner Compressor (SLC), described at the EAPPC-BEAMS-Megagauss conference [1], grew out of the original Linus program at the Naval Research Laboratory in the 1970s [2]. The idea then, as now, was to create a stable liner to compress ma

NumerEx's Stabilized Liner Compressor (SLC) is a mechanical driver that rotates and implodes a liquid metal vortex - our liner - to compress magnetic fields and plasma to fusion energy densities. The rotation conquers the Rayleigh- Taylor instability

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 Stabilized Liner Compressor (SLC) concept uses annular free-pistons, driven by high-pressure helium, to implode a rotating liquid metal liner that compresses a plasma/field target to fusion conditions [1], [2]. The free-pistons accelerate and re-

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

There appears to be an optimum operating regime1, known variously as Magnetized Target Fusion (MTF) or Magneto-Inertial Fusion (MIF), between the mainline programs of magnetic-confinement and inertial-confinement fusion that offers reduced size and c

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
