Abstract
A simple fluid model of the operation of a large annulus ratio coaxial electromagnetic gun is presented. The profile of a stable, steady-state front driven by the electromagnetic forces is calculated and shown to be in reasonable agreement with experimental results for such a device operated with the central electrode positive. A discussion is given of the plasma state in the flowing gas layer in the front.
