| Abstract | Over the past 30 years, the paraxial diode has utilized a gas-filled transport cell to focus an electron beam onto a high-Z target in order to generate intense x-rays for flash radiography. One of the key objectives is to create a small radiographic spot, which in turn is related to the focusing dynamics of the beam. For gas-filled transport cells, the primary limitation to achieving a small time-integrated spot size is believed to be due to beam sweeping through the focal plane on the timescale of the pulse. This results in a larger than desired time-integrated radiographic spot. Recent simulations using LSP, a particle-in-cell code, have found that if a pre-ionized plasma transport cell is utilized with density on the order of $10^{16}$ $cm^{-3},$ then the beam focal plane is essentially "frozen" in time, thereby limiting spot growth due to beam sweep. Recent experiments at Sandia National Laboratories have been conducted to investigate the spot behavior as a function of time for both gas and plasma-filled transport cells. For the plasma-filled experiments, a z-discharge of static hydrogen is used to create a highly ionized plasma in the transport cell. For the gas-filled experiments, the transport cell is filled with either hydrogen or air with pressures of 0.5-5 Torr. Time-resolved as well as time integrated measurement of the focal spot are presented and compared for both the gas and plasma-filled transport cells. |

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.
