Megagauss fields and pulsed power systems
The papers presented in this book reflect an up-to-date level of the experimental techniques for obtaining ultrahigh magnetic fields, designing explosive MC-generators, high-current switches and related problems. Experimental devices are described which allow reproducible magnetic fields higher than 16 MG to be obtained in large volumes. Explosive generators producing up to 10{sup 8} J per unit module with currents of hundreds of million amper and power exceeding 10{sup 13} W are described. The high-current switches developed provide the possibility of forming current pulses of tens of million amper. A number of papers describe the applications of ultrahigh magnetic fields and pulsed power sources in various experiments on high energy density physics, plasma physics, solid state physics, etc.
