Deceleration of the ionizing shock waves by magnetic pressure is calculated for cesium iodide (CsI). It will be shown that it is possible to evaluate the limiting magnetic pressure for the SWMFC by a relatively simple and clearly understandable method.</p> </div> </td></tr></table> <table align="center" width="100%" style="margin: 1cm, 0cm, 1cm, 0cm"> <tr><td>&nbsp;</td><td> <table border="0" align="right"> <tr><td><font size="+1">Full text:</font></td> <td align="left" width="50">&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr><td><a href="./pdf/kolosenok.pdf">Kolosenok.pdf (490K)</a></td> <td>&nbsp;</td> </table> </td></tr> </table> <table align="center" border="0" width="90%"><tr bgcolor="black"><td height="2" style="height:2px"><img src="Picts/pixel_b.gif" alt="" width="90%" height="1" border="0"></td> </tr></table> <div align="center"><a href="index.htm">Back to Contents</a></div> </body> </html>
