The SRS (Segmented Rail Surface) railgun [electronic resource] : A new approach to restrike control. [Segmented rail surface]

A Segmented Rail Surface (SRS) structure is described that eliminates restrike arcs by progressively disconnecting segments of the rail surface after the plasma armature has passed. This technique has been demonstrated using the Los Alamos MIDI-2 railgun. Restrike was eliminated in a plasma armature...
