Fig. 2From: “The Even-Lavie valve as a source for high intensity supersonic beam”The Magnitude of the magnetic field created by a 15 amps current in the coil is mapped. The magnetic plunger and its counter plug insert are separated by 0.1 mm only. The magnetic field in the gap (~2 Tesla) is enough to cause deep magnetic saturation in the plunger and plug. Displayed is the upper half of the rotationally symmetric geometryBack to article page
