"Reflections of Electromagnetic Waves Obliquely Incident on a Multilayer Stealth Structure With Plasma and Radar Absorbing Material" by Bowen Bai, Xiaoping Li, Jin Xu and Yanming Liu To overcome some drawbacks of the plasma stealth technology in real-life application, a practical multilayer stealth structure composed of enclosed plasma slab and radar absorbing material (RAM) is presented in this paper. Based on a technique referred to as the transmission line analogy method, reflection coefficients of the perpendicularly polarized wave, the parallel polarized wave, and the circularly polarized wave obliquely incident upon this multilayer structure are determined, respectively. more...

"An Adjustable Magnetic Switch" by Song Li, Jing-Ming Gao, Han-Wu Yang, Bao-Liang Qian and Yao Pan In this paper, an adjustable magnetic switch (AMS) based on splice winding is investigated numerically and experimentally. The proposed AMS has advantage of high power level, high repetitive rate capability, long lifetime achievability, and electrical parameters tunability, which meets the growing requirements of the military and industrial application of pulsed power technology. Adjustment of the electrical parameters of magnetic switch is achieved by altering the number of windings via the modification of the joint points between the AMS and the main circuit more...

"Characterizing the Plasmas of Dense Z-Pinches" by Dmitri D. Ryutov This mini-tutorial summarizes the plasma characteristics important for the Z-pinch research, with an emphasis on high-density collisional plasmas. It begins with the discussion of the most basic plasma properties related to collisionality and magnetization and then proceeds to more complex phenomena associated with magnetic field evolution in a highly dynamical plasma. Plasma transport properties are discussed mostly in conjunction with the Magnetized Liner Inertial Fusion concept more...

"A Review of the Gas-Puff Z-Pinch as an X-Ray and Neutron Source" by John L. Giuliani and Robert J. Commisso Fisher and collaborators at the University of California, Irvine, invented the gas puff Z-pinch in the late 1970s using a 200-kA generator. The implementation of gas puffs as a copious source of X-rays has encountered major challenges, such as disruptive instabilities and the quest for long implosion times. During nearly four decades of experimental and theoretical efforts, those challenges have been successfully met to a great extent. more...

"Plasma of Vacuum Discharges: The Pursuit of Elevating Metal Ion Charge States, Including a Recent Record of Producing Bi¹³⁺" by Georgy Yu. Yushkov, André Anders, Valeria P. Frolova, Alexey G. Nikolaev, Efim M. Oks, and Alexander V. Vodopyanov Metal ions in the plasma of vacuum discharges are commonly multiply charged with ion charge states from 1+ to 3+, reaching 4+ and 5+ for some metals. The elevation of metal ion charge states in vacuum discharge plasma is an interesting challenge for plasma physics because it requires a deeper understanding of the processes leading to a more intense ionization of the electrode material. more...
