Shot reproducibility of the self-magnetic-pinch diode at 4.5 MV

Shot reproducibility of the self-magnetic-pinch diode at 4.5 MV

In experiments conducted at Sandia National Laboratories’ RITS-6 accelerator, the self-magnetic-pinch diode exhibits significant shot-to-shot variability. Specifically, for identical hardware operated at the same voltage, some shots exhibit a catastrophic drop in diode impedance. A study is underway...
