System of Multi-Frame Registration of Fast Processes in the Plasma Focus on the Basis of Image Intensifier Tubes

The article describes the results of the development of a diagnostic complex for studying plasma dynamics. The basic operating principle of the complex is to project an image of a plasma object at the input of the device with further division of optical radiation into several channels using semitransparent mirrors. Images in each channel are recorded by a photographic system in which an image intensifier tube serves as a fast shutter. The use of the delay system allows one to observe the dynamics of the process under study in a multi-frame mode from a single angle. The complex has been tested in studies of plasma flow dynamics at the PF-3 plasma focus facility.
