    Abstract: Examples of system for generating vortex cavity are disclosed. The system comprises a vessel into which a fluid is injected through one or more inlet ports and a fluid circulating system configured to circulate the fluid through the vessel such that the fluid is removed from the vessel through an outlet port and is returned back into the vessel through the one and more inlet ports. A first spinner is mounted at one wall of the vessel while a second spinner is mounted at the opposite wall of the vessel such that the second spinner is at some distance away from the first spinner and it faces the first spinner. When the fluid circulating system starts circulating the fluid within the vessel a vortex cavity is formed that extends between the first and the second spinners so that one end of the vortex cavity sits on the first spinner while the opposite end of the vortex cavity sits on the second spinner.

    Abstract: Examples of systems for forming cavity and a liquid liner are described. The system comprises a vessel and a rotating member positioned within the vessel and rotatable about an axis of rotation. The rotating member has an inner surface 5 curved with respect to the axis of rotation, an outer and plurality of fluid passages that each has an inboard opening at the inner surface and an outboard opening at the outer surface. The rotating member is filled with a liquid medium and a rotational driver rotates the rotating member such that when rotating the liquid medium at least partially fills the fluid passages forming liquid liner, defining the 10 cavity. The cavity formation system is used in a liquid liner implosion system with an implosion driver that causes the liquid liner to implode inwardly collapsing the cavity. The imploding liquid liner system can be used in plasma compression systems.

    Abstract: Examples of a device for gettering and surface conditioning are disclosed. The device comprises an elongated tube with a closed first end, a second end and a body extending between the first end and the second end. The body defines an inner cavity of the tube in which a heating device is inserted. The tube is inserted into a vessel so that the first end is positioned within the vessel. A solid metal is mounted closely to the tube in a region surrounding the heating device and a meshed screen is mounted over the solid metal and secured to the tube. When the heating device is on, the heat transfers through the tube's wall into the solid metal melting and vaporizing it, so that the metal vapors travel and coat onto vessel's surfaces. The device can also be used in producing metal alloys such as lead lithium alloys.
