主 题:Plasma focus Neutron yield Tritium-filled plasma focus chambers
摘 要:The paper describes the operation features of plasma focus chambers using deuteriumetritium *** tritium requires the use of sealed,vacuum-tight plasma focus *** these chambers,there is an accumulation of the impurity gases released from the inside surfaces of the electrodes and the insulator while moving plasma current sheath inside chambers interacting with b-electrons generated due to the decay of *** of tritium is also accompanied by the accumulation of *** lead to a decreased yield of neutron emission from plasma focus chambers,especially for long term *** paper presents an option of absorption type gas generator in the chamber based on porous titanium,which allows to significantly increase the lifetime and shelf life of tritium *** also shows the results of experiments on the comparison of the operation of sealed plasma focus chambers with and without the gas generator.
