Abstract
Two variations of an intense ion beam diode having magnetic insulation generated either by an external capacitor bank (radial ion diode) or by diode curent passing through coil-like vanes, (AMPFION) are described. Advantages in energy delivery and focusability make AMPFION the best candidate for attaining ignition.
