Model parameters versus gas pressure in two different plasma focus devices operated in Argon and Neon

For the plasma focus device AECS PF-2 operated in Ar and INTI PF in Ne, model parameters of mass and current in the axial phase of plasma focus were found by matching the measured and calculated current waveforms over a range of pressures. The results show a value of fm = 0.05 ± 0.01 over 0.2–1.2 To...
