Abstract

Powerful pulse installations are usually used to produce large yields of X-ray radiation. With an increase of the stored energy up to 100 MJ, the costof a single experiment on these installations becomes comparable to the cost of a shot with explosive magnetic generators (EMG), according to expert estimates. The physical scheme of a device with a changeable mass liner forlarge soft X-ray (in the range of 0.3 to 0.5 keV) yields eneration is investigated. The scheme investigated is substantially free from difficulties connected with high precision liners and fast switches for current pulse sharpening.
