Abstract The physical process of a single-stage planar-pulsed-inductive accelerator is investigated. Measurements include the waveforms of circuit current, capacitor voltage, plasma radiation intensity, and temporal plasma structure photos captured by a high-speed camera. Experiments are conducted under static ambient fill condition using argon as propellant. Varied values of capacitor voltage and gas pressure are compared. Further discussions quantify the EM interaction between circuit and plasma, as well as their energy deposition and current sheet acceleration. Based on the results of experiments, physical mechanisms of the initial ionization phase and the following acceleration phase are analyzed theoretically.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
