To achieve a thermonuclear ignition threshold in the scheme of indirect irradiation of Z‑pinch by X‑radiation, it is necessary to implode the liner by the current with the amplitude 65 МА for the time 100 ns. The currents with such parameters can be achieved with the use of super-power disk explosive magnetic generators and a two-stage current pulse sharpening system based on foil electrically exploded current opening switches in a form of a serpentine. The implementation of the explosive current source with a rise time of 100 ns is advisable to be carried out in stages by increasing the magnitude of current. The results of the first-stage experiments, in which the current with the amplitude of 5 MA was produced on the basis of the helical explosive magnetic generator in the load of 10 nH for the time of 110 ns, are presented.
