Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The results of the study of axial plasma flows generated in a plasma focus-type setup are presented. The study is performed using laser probing and plasma diagnosing techniques based on image converter means. The dependences of the parameters of axial plasma flows on the electrode shape, gas pressure in a discharge chamber, and gas type are found. The optimum setup operating conditions are determined.
