Physics of High Temperature, Dense Plasmas.

Abstract

The grant, 'The Physics of High Temperature, Dense Plasmas,' includes work on two projects in conjunction with the Advanced Concepts Branch of the Applied Physics Division at the Air Force Weapons Laboratory. The first is a relativistic electron beam-(REB) heated, dense plasma experiment using REB facilities at AFWL, and the second is soft x-ray instrumentation work pertinent to the SHIVA x-ray simulation facility. This report primarily details work in progress and results achieved in the REB-Plasma interaction experiments, since much of our effort during the period of this report have been directed at that project.
