THE ELECTRICAL BEHAVIOR OF EXPLODING WIRES. PART I. EXPERIMENTAL APPARATUS AND TECHNIQUES

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4197240
;

The experimental apparatus and techniques for studying exploding wires by means of a cable discharge system are described. The cable discharge system is shown to have the advantages of more accurate and easier interpretation of results and more accurate and easier instrumentation than the more commonly used capacitor discharge systems.
