| Abstract | Summary form only given. Analysis is performed on data obtained from the HAWK inductive storage generator at the Naval Research Laboratory using a Plasma Opening Switch (POS) to drive an electron-beam (e-beam) diode load. The aim of this analysis is to gain new insights into the POS opening process and its effect on switch-load coupling, a phenomenon which is not currently well understood. Currents and voltages measured both at the generator and at the load are used to infer load impedance, flow impedance, load power, POS gap size, and the critical POS gap for magnetic insulation. An important finding is that, at the time of peak load power, the inferred POS gap size is equal to the critical POS gap for magnetic insulation in both switch-limited and load-limited operation. This suggests that POS-load coupling is self-regulated to maintain saturated flow in the POS. Generator current and voltage upstream of the POS are used to determine the time varying inductance upstream of the POS current channel. From this inductance calculation, the location of the current channel at the time of switch opening may be inferred and compared with the location where bremsstrahlung emission is observed to begin in side-viewing X-ray pinhole photographs of HAWK. The effect of varying the conduction time, the anode-cathode gap and the POS-to-load distance on the inferred current-channel location at the time of POS opening is studied. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
