MOVING MAGNETIC FIELD BEHIND A STRONG DEUTERIUM SHOCK

By introducing a spiral in the return conductor of a conical discharge tube with a hollow electrode, a magnetic multipole was observed propagating down a cylinder extending out from the hollow electrode. This magnetic field appears to have an extreniely complicated internal structure when observed with small magnetic probes; when observed by an external loop, the net axial leakage flux shows a structure consistent with the characteristics of a shock produced deuterium plasma.
