COBRA is designed to drive ~ 10 nH loads at 1 MA with 95-230 ns zero-to-peak pulses. COBRA has been used for a variety of HED experiments using conical wire arrays, laboratory plasma jets, magnetic reconnection geometries, X-pinches and gas-puff, wire array and liner Z-pinches. Staffing includes one machinist, two technicians, a research support specialist with a strong optics background, a postdoc, graduate students and three faculty, all familiar with the COBRA operation.
