Our laboratory is engaged in several experimental activities inevstigating non-equilibrium plasmas: plasma stability, non-thermal electron distribution, magnetic field penetration, influence of strong electric fields.

• Collapse of cylindrical plasma under azimuthal magnetic field - Z-pinches;
• Current-carrying plasmas - Plasma Opening Switches;
• Warm dense matter - Laser-produced plasmas;
• Plasmas under strong electric fields - Ion Diodes.

There is also a specially designed high-current coaxial-line setup, dedicated to developing a novel magnetic-field-measurement technique.
