Amrollahi and M. Habibi}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {When the shock front (SF) hits the central electrode axis of plasma focus device, a reflected shock wave moves radially outwards. The current sheath (CS) results from ionization of filled gas between two electrodes continues to compress inwards until it hits the out-going reflected shock front. In this paper the Lagrangian equations are solved for a parabolic shock trajectory yielding a first and second approximation for the CS path. To determine the accuracy of the approximation, the same problem is solved for a straight shock.}, journal = {International Journal of Physical and Mathematical Sciences}, volume = {2}, number = {7}, year = {2008}, pages = {376 - 379}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/15254}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/19}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 19, 2008}, }
