| Summary: | In this paper, a total of 5 Dense Plasma Focus (DPF) machines, working in argon gas which
uses Mather type anode (7 energy range), were analysed using numerical experimentation (Lee
Codes). Three important scaling laws relating the all line yield to the peak current, pinch current
and energy input into the plasma were obtained. The scaling laws act as guidelines in scaling
the DPF for applications such as medical radiation. |
