Very high ratio compression by liquid conical implosion

POSTER

Abstract

A conical implosion device is designed to achieve very high ratio compression, up to $10^9$ or even higher. The compressing liquid has very low vapor pressure. A novel method is used to prepare the initial pure and thin gas. Some preliminary results proved the concept. The device can produce high energy density (HED) states in a near thermal equilibrium state, heat a gas continuously from very low (a few K) to very high temperature ($\sim$ 100,000 K), or do magnetized target fusion (MTF) with a proper external pulse current or magnetic field.
