| Abstract | Summary form only given. The operating conditions of the plasma focus depend strongly on several macroscopic parameters like energy of cap bank, current, voltage, electrodes dimension, and curvature of current sheath in axial phase. The drive parameter $(I_{p}/a)/radicrho$ which is proportional to the speed of the plasma in both axial and radial phases is one of the most important parameter which determines the performance of a DPF as a source of fusion neutron. Experiments on 2-3 kJ DPF have been done to show that this parameter is important over a wide range of other parameters like anode length, insulator sleeve length and operating gas pressures. The NX2 machine was modified to have different aspect ratios ranging from A = L/2a ap 0.2 (NX2-F) to 1.52 (NX2). Here 2a, the diameter of the anode is taken from the flat top of the anode and L is taken as the free length of the anode, i.e. between the tip of anode to the insulator sleeve. In the case of neutron yield the speed is critical as the highest temperature ~1 keV needs to be achieved as the cross section is strongly dependent on temperature. A between high speed which implies high and low speeds which implies longer time gives the optimum yield for drive parameter 89 $kA/cm/torr^{1/2}$ for Mather type focus and a drive parameter of 50 $kA/cm/torr^{1/2}$ for Filippov type focus. The NX2-F with its mushroom shaped anode has a drive parameter intermediate between the Filippov and Mather type plasma focus is due to the shape intermediate between the Filippov and Mather type plasma focus devices. The drive parameter for NX2-F is found to keep constant at different voltages. In addition, neutron yields from the modified plasma focus tube without original cathode rods were also found to have the same order magnitude as the original electrode systems and reach the highest at the same gas pressure. This confirms that the drive parameter has an importance over cathodes at a big range of gas pressures |

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.
