APPARATUS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF INTENSE TRANSIENT MAGNETIC FIELDS.

Abstract

The paper describes the design of a pulsed field unit to obtain fields up to 200 KGauss inside a volume of about 5 cc. The coils are wire wound and are connected directly to a 2000 micro F capacitor bank by means of a triggered-spark-gap. The discharge in almost all the coils is oscillatory with a half period of the order of m secs. Discharge characteristics, forces acting on the coils and temperature rise during discharge are discussed. Arrangement of the capacitors in the bank, spark gap and reinforcement of coils are described. Electrical deisgns, safety features and measurement instructions are given briefly. (Author)
