“…The general foil design is described in [4] and [7] but is 800 µm in length and width and has a Kapton backing thickness of 250 µm to reduce x-ray absorption to improve image contrast. The foils were deposited onto a Kapton substrate using physical deposition before acid etching the foil to a profile and thickness.…”

Abstract. During the electrical explosion of bridge-wires and bridge-foils, the metal bridge undergoes rapid resistive-heating. The metal is rapidly expanded through solid, liquid, vapour and plasma phases. This study uses ALEGRA MHD, a Sandia National Laboratory magneto-hydrocode, to predict the formation of these metallic phases during the explosion process and determine the effects of surface heterogeneities on the spatial distribution of these phases. The simulations are compared against x-ray phase contrast radiographs of electrically exploded bridge-foils. From comparison of these data, it is evident that the meso-structure of the metallic foil dominates the explosion process and is something that should be controlled during the manufacturing processes for detonator designs.

“…Assuming an olivine density of 3222 kg m −3 , this corresponds to a porosity of 0.486 ± 0.016. The IMPULSE facility at the Dynamic Compression Sector (DCS) [3] at Argonne National Lab's Advanced Photon Source (APS) was used to image the dynamic compaction, as shown in Fig. 1a.…”

“…The sample is illuminated by a white beam (4 − 150 keV) X-ray, over a 1.71 × 1.71 mm region near the impact surface. The detector comprises an LYSO scintillator with the optical beam split between four 1024 × 1024 PIMAX CCD cameras, capturing two frames each to obtain up to 8 images of the impact event with a time resolution of either 153.4 or 306.8 ns [3]. Trigger pins (Dynasen) provide the insertion delay for the detectors.…”

“…The IMPULSE (IMPact System for ULtrafast Synchrotron Experiments) capability developed at the Advanced Photon Source (APS, Argonne IL) and available at the Dynamic Compression Sector (DCS) was recently developed [7,8] (and references therein) to couple impact experiments to synchrotron X-ray diagnostics. IMPULSE consists of a 12.6-mm bore light-gas gun with impact speeds up to 0.9 km/s.…”
