Abstract
- The Michigan Accelerator for Inductive Z-pinch Experiments (MAIZE) is a single-stage, 1-MA linear transformer driver at the University of Michigan. The MAIZE facility has been the site of various experimental studies, including wire array Z-pinches for X-ray source development and cylindrical foil loads for implosion stability analysis. In order to better understand and investigate these and other experiments, a 4-frame extreme ultraviolet camera was implemented, the optical stability of a 12-frame laser shadowgraphy system was improved, B-dot probes were upgraded, and a Rogowski coil was constructed. New conical load hardware was also developed to reduce the inductance of the transmission line and thus improve the current delivered to the loads. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
