There were some clear patterns on the October news’ post. Firing at 30Torr and at 1.7 (instead of 2.2)micro seconds pinch would get the yield close to 10Joules @1MA and @35KV which is just slightly better then the end of october. With 10banks, as it was done last week, 1.3MA should be achieved, and thus, about 30J. What went wrong?
