Energy and flux of ion beams in a Mather type (5 kJ) plasma focus device was investigated.
The experiments were performed with argon as the chamber gas at the optimum pressure of …

Abstract An 11.5 kJ plasma focus (PF) device was used here to irradiate materials with
fusion grade plasma. The surface modifications of different materials (W, Ni, stainless steel …

Mega-ampere dense plasma foci and deuterium gas-puff z-pinches can accelerate
deuterons to multi-MeV energies. Diagnostic measurements of the properties of these ions …

The effects of gas filling pressure and operation energy on deuterium ions and neutrons
have been studied in a medium energy plasma focus device, MEPF-12. The deuterium gas …
