  • Abstract
    Experiments are being conducted on Hawk to investigate the electrical coupling of a plasma opening switch (PaS) to a neon plasma radiation source (PRS) and to evaluate the k-shell x-ray yield scaling of implosions with different initial radii, mass, and implosion times. Understanding the coupling and scaling is important for optimizing the performance of more-powerful inductive-storage generators that rely on pas technology.
