... Efforts at the Institute since 1952 have addressed the conversion of explosion energy into magnetic energy and the use of this concept to design magnetic-cumulation or explosive-magnetic generators. The magnetic-cumulation generator is a device that can produce magnetic fields as high as 1,000 T in an active volume 9 mm in diameter and 100 mm long.
