Abstract:

This effort represents a first attempt at combining the two separate technologies of explosive flux compression and Hertzian generation for the purpose of obtaining ultra-high energy pulses at microwave frequencies. A number of interesting concepts were analyzed and three were selected by the contractor as most deserving of future attention. It is hoped that this report will stimulate further imaginative and creative thought in this direction leading eventually to a successful technique for accomplishing the aforementioned goal. Author
