What would be the advantage to rapping the copper around a ferrite material? Would this increase the electromagnetic repulsion direction?

Thanks 👍

Isnt this technically theta pinch? I thought z pinch was the tendency of arcs to form streamers due to the magnetic fields of the particles movement drawing them together

how did this work out for the long run?

💯💯💯💯💯

Very interesting insight..

I was born at the wrong time and place. When you configure a time machine please consider me a willing volunteer. My fate does not coincide with my interests, and would happily alter my reality to match my life with my interests.

can you change to 400hz freq

Thats actually a pretty good design, plastic is very resilient against corrosive fumes, and its like 30 dollars

What voltage and frequency is that?

Nice

Put washers or or something on your magnets to keep the heat off them, they really don't like it.

Will a smaller jar help with lack of voltage? I can only get a transformer from my microwave oven and its only about 2kV output.

This would probably put off some mad rf. You could put it in a parabola and aim it at something.

Do you have an end goal for using the z pinch? Are you planning on using deuterium?

Ok thats awesome

Want an apprentice? 😄👽fr tho😁🧑‍🔧👨‍🏭

Check out how someone is making a Golden Ratio spiral using Tesla coils at specific currents and frequencies. I suspect its a demonstration of Plasma effecting itself through some carefully timed fields. I forget the dudes name but should be easy to find. He can make various types of discharges from the coil using different combinations of frequencies and currents so perhaps looking into it can give a little inspiration for further work as an AC discharge would cause an expanding and collapsing magnetic field to setup conditions where you might be able to produce some interesting effects in controlling the plasma in low pressure. If those dudes can do it in open air I am confident much could be done in low pressure. I always theorized a Fusor without the inner grid and recent looks at these plasma toroid's makes me even more confident in my old assumptions.

Cool experiments, looking forward to seeing what you do next.

Mahn thas some supernatural shit....... Blip

Sorry if this question is irrelevant but how do you produce a gliding arc /'warm plasma'?

I had this idea a while back. Cool to see someone actually do it.

nice .vid .......how much was that high speed camera .....lol ask the slow mo guys

Who warned you of x-rays at 3 kV?!? Asides from the fact that it's extremely unlikely to generate x-rays at that acceleration voltage (albeit not impossible), they'd be of extremely low photon energy. I might add that if you manage to generate x-rays of < 3 keV photon energy, I doubt your x-ray screen would emit any light from it. P.S. Subscribed!

Nice!

If the intensifying screen won't work out, I would imagine a Scintillation crystal tube and the Pi-camera behind it to detect the energy from the scintillate (i.e. re-emit the absorbed energy in the form of light). There might be an issue with visible light getting through, but with a Beryllium screen in front, it is possible to block visible photons. As a metal, beryllium is transparent or translucent to most wavelengths of X-rays and gamma rays, making it useful for the output windows of X-ray tubes and other such apparatus - so it would also be useful as an input window. You could also test the sensitivity using a natural ionizing emitter, say using Uranium glass - as Uranium 238 is a beta emitter. Looking forward to the next video :ø) Edit: If you 'just' want to confirm x-rays, using 'just' a Beryllium screen in front of the pi CCD sensor ought to do the trick (remove all lenses, IR filters, etc, so the chip is exposed for maximum sensitivity). The Scintillation crystal could in theory work like a lens, but I'm not 100% on that, but it will definitively detect ionizing radiation and give off visible light for the camera to see. I would recommend reading "The suitability of smartphone camera sensors for detecting radiation" in Scientific Reports from Nature, to shed some light on the subject ;ø) Beware if going this route, Beryllium isn't your friend - so handle with utmost care..

Did you wind that coil yourself or did you pull it out of a supply?

That coil looks like it would produce delta pinch?

Is your vacum switch mechanical or a sparkgap switch? Ive done small capacitor bank switch using a small xenon flash and trigger it using a small flyback transformer probobly loose alot of power through the flash will buy a ussr sparkgap switch to test out soon

Awesome channel very cool project. Woundt the coils benefit from some steel or other ferromagnetic naterial to focus the field towards the tube something likeca hallbach array ifvthat would work with electromagnets maybe put the coils inside the tube to get them closer the the plasma since magnetic field loose alot of strength over distance. Maybe have more then one compression stage put 2 coils that fire in rapid succesion

Good stuff. Interested to see more

At 3kv i dont think the electrons have enough energy to produce any x-rays at all. Amazing setup though. Gained a new sub

te hace falta mas vacío

Anyone seen Y-Rays yet? Don't ask why, if not, youse goys didn't look right. Still don't look right.

would a cheap dosimeter work to pick up a short flux?

could you use an explosively pumped flux compression generator (EPFCG) for this?

Look at the Bennet Pinch equation, in fusion reactors they only use high current plasmas which naturally concentrates the beam, the gas inlet/injector is also made very narrow at high gas pressure rates to drive the concentration further BUT, this will EAT the cathode/anode emitter collector, so exotic materials will have to be used, i.e. tungsten, beryllium, iridium etc.

Another thought: you need to make the field winding as close to a pancake design as possible to concentrate the field, and/or a big ferrite would be useful (use a high power torroidal transformer core and secondary windings)assuming here you are striving towards fusion.

Good work!, I didn't realise the amount of magnetic field required to compress, thats very high!, alternative viewpoint here, instead of increasng turns and current on the field, why not use a high-current plasma set up instead, so the main field will interact more strongly with the windings? I am thinking like the high current-low voltage setup of a tig welder or plasma cutter, maybe 100A @ 60v in free space with insulated+heat protected windings ? This can be achieved using graphite rods to initiate the plasma as they do in plasma arc furnaces. (Graphite rods cheap off ebay)

Dude slow down...fusion is still 50 years away and always will be. ROFL!

Where are the 3K resistors and the 1Ω / 10 watt resistor? According to the plan

Oh my gosh , that capacitor bank is huge

What the hell !!! Your trailer Lab is for sure the coolest lab I ever seen in me life !!! very thoughtful of you not to bother your neighbors with your experiments

Super cool brother !!! I love zvs capacitor chargers must be one of the best ways to do it

3Kv ? I wouldn`t worry about X rays at all... nice set up! sorry it got fried! :( .. tell you what! you`ve earned a new sub!

Very cool project! and what a great channel! I find that epoxy ready mix is far superior for vacuum leaks in rough vacuum systems.. But you have to get a better pump bro! Hey I know how expensive all this can be ... trust me ! Nice work ! keep it up!

This is a similat method rhat was used ro coat some ceramic material with silicon.

Thats about as much makeshift as possible 😂

Is that setup what is known as a DC glow? So far only seen models, but not actual footage. Also in the future if you happen to revisit this with a high speed camera could you upload? Would like to build one myself, but I'm no electric surgeon so will stick to watching.

Why such a huge battery of electrolytic low capacitors with high inductance? you ideally need one oil capacitor 20 nanohenry 60 kilovolts 10 microfarads with instant current output in megaamps
