초록

This paper presents experimental and simulation results of discharge in spherically convergent beam fusion device. The deuterium-deuterium (D-D) fusion reaction in that device will generate neutron. The experimental device is consists of a vacuum chamber made of stainless steel, spherical mesh type anode and concentric grid cathode of 5cm diameter. The pressure of chamber maintained constant by injecting gas. A star mode discharge which has possibility of effective neutron generation was observed, when deuterium gas was injected in the chamber and pulsed voltage applied to grid cathode.
