Abstract :
Most important results of research on intense plasma-ion streams and D-D fusion neutron pulses, which were generated within the large PF-1000 facility investigated by an International Center for Dense Magnetized Plasma (ICDMP) team is presented. Time-resolved X-ray and neutron signals recorded with scintillation detectors, which were placed at various angles to the z-axis and at different distances from the PF center is also studied.
