Abstract
Earlier results have shown that a plasma window can effectively separate va
cuum from a pressure of close to 3 atm. Present results indicate that a pla
sma window enhanced by a venturi facilitates a rather effective vacuum sepa
ration from a 9 atm gas target. Utilization of the plasma are as the window
for gas targets removes all of the limitations on beam current, energy, an
d energy focusing imposed by solid windows, Various applications and the ne
w results are discussed. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved
