Pulse power system development for megajoule X-ray facility BAIKAL

TRINITI develops a project of multiterawatt generator «BAIKAL» to produce powerful pulses of soft X-rays, using electric pulse power 500 – 1000 TW. Parameters of proposed X-ray generator are: X-ray pulse energy − 10 MJ, X-ray pulse duration − 10 ns, load current amplitude − 50 MA. The methods of pulse power increasing proposed for Baikal project are studies and tested on 12 MJ inductive store installation MOL located at TRINITI Institute.
