Abstract
Magnetic fields are produced in the 10–15 megagauss range by use of high explosives which compress the flux obtained from initial fields of approximately a hundred thousand gauss. The fields described here occupy a cylindrical volume and are essentially axial. A typical field might have these general characteristics: Peak field 14 megagauss; 2 μsec duration from 10–14 megagauss; field volume around peak, 6 mm diameter, 50 mm estimated length.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
