Nested tungsten wire arrays (20-mm on 12-mm diam.) are shown for the first time to operate in a current-transfer mode at 16-19 MA, even for azimuthal interwire gaps of 0.2 mm that are the smallest typically used for any array experiment. After current transfer, the inner wire array shows discrete wire ablation and implosion characteristics identical to that of a single array, such as axially nonuniform ablation, delayed acceleration, and trailing mass and current. The presence of trailing mass from the outer and the inner arrays may play a role in determining nested array performance.

Article Synopsis
- A proposed superconducting joint architecture enables the connection of carbon-doped magnesium diboride (MgB) wires while effectively screening external magnetic fields for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) applications.
- The architecture takes advantage of the natural diamagnetic properties of bulk MgB to create a magnetic field screening effect around the connection, achieving significant results in magnetic field suppression.
- The joint can withstand magnetic fields of up to 1.5 T at 20 K and 2 T at 15 K, maintaining a high critical current of 30.8 A and low resistance, making it promising for improving MRI magnet efficiency.

The presence of electrochemical reactions occurring in an electrospray processes at the point where the current enters the liquid is discussed since the early 1990's. This current transfer to the liquid results in oxidation or reduction of either electrolyte species in the liquid sprayed or of the electrode material in contact with the liquid. As a result, new chemical species are generated.

A new and simple method to adjust the scale factor of a magnetic force feedback accelerometer is presented, which could be used in developing a rotating accelerometer gravity gradient instrument (GGI). Adjusting and matching the acceleration-to-current transfer function of the four accelerometers automatically is one of the basic and necessary technologies for rejecting the common mode accelerations in the development of GGI. In order to adjust the scale factor of the magnetic force rebalance accelerometer, an external current is injected and combined with the normal feedback current; they are then applied together to the torque coil of the magnetic actuator.

Gravity gradient measurement makes use of the difference between the outputs of pairs of linear accelerometers, which results in cancelling out the common mode accelerations caused by mounting platform and external environment. One of the key technologies is to match the acceleration-to-voltage or acceleration-to-current transfer functions of the pairs of the accelerometers to an extremely high degree of accuracy. The differential signals then make the gravity gradients observable.

This paper describes the conception of the current follower transconductance amplifier (CFTA) with electronically and linearly current tunable. The newly modified element is realized based on the use of transconductance cells (G(m)s) as core circuits. The advantage of this element is that the current transfer ratios (i(z)/i(p) and i(x)/i(z)) can be tuned electronically and linearly by adjusting external DC bias currents.
