Abstract
In November 1992, the All Russian Scientific Research Institute of Experimental Physics (VNIIEF), Arzamas-16, Russia and the Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos NM, USA embarked on a historic effort to conduct a joint explosive pulse-power experiment. With the concurrence of the Ministry of Atomic Energy (Russia) and the Department of Energy (USA), the two laboratories entered into a Laboratory-to-Laboratory collaboration in the areas of very high energy pulse power and ultrahigh magnetic fields in order to explore problems of mutual scientific interest. The first experiment was an explosively powered, fast, high-current pulse-power experiment. The experiment employed a flux compressor, inductive store and opening switch to demonstrate the feasibility of supplying many megajoules of electrical energy on microsecond time scales, to high energy density physics experiments. The experiment was successfully conducted in Arzamas-16 on September 22, 1993.
