| Abstract | The ZR project [1] to refurbish the Z accelerator at Sandia National Laboratories [2] is scheduled for completion in FY06. An important factor for the success of ZR is limiting current losses in the vacuum section. On Z today, late-time losses of 5 - 10% are observed, which are known to occur in the post-hole convolute region. The most direct way to mitigate these losses is to limit the electron flow into the convolute from the magnetically insulated transmission lines (MITLs). The key design consideration is the radial profile of the MITL gap. The MITL gap profile is a compromise between two competing constraints - limiting both the electron flow into the convolute and the MITL inductance. Larger gaps reduce the flow, while smaller gaps reduce the inductance. 2-D particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations suggest that the current Z A-level MITL profile is close to optimum, in the sense of minimizing the flow for its total inductance. For ZR, operating at ~40% higher voltage and ~30% higher current, the decision was made to limit the flow into the convolute to be no larger than on Z today. Time-accurate simulations, with a Z-pinch load, show that profiles based on Z, but with 20% larger gaps meet this condition. It does not appear to be possible to meet the flow limitation without this increase in inductance. |

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.
