Abstract

Numerical experiments carried out using the Lee code to study some properties of ions beam (flux, fluence and ion beam energy) produced by the NX2 dense plasma device when using light gas (helium) and heavy gas (nitrogen) when gas pressure changes. The results showed that in the case of light gas (helium), the flux and fluence of the beam were higher while the ion beam energy was higher in the case of heavy gas (nitrogen) because the effective charge of nitrogen's ion is greater and also the voltage generated by the collapse of pinch was higher.
