Saturation current spikes eliminated in saturable core transformers

Unsaturating composite magnetic core transformer, consisting of two separate parallel cores designed so impending core saturation causes signal generation, terminates high current spike in converter primary circuit. Simplified waveform, demonstrates transformer effectiveness in eliminating current spikes.

Saturation and beaming in astrophysical masers. II - The fully saturated limit

Radiative transfer in fully saturated maser clouds has been investigated using the 'four-stream' model equations of Alcock and Ross (1985). It is shown that a modest elongation of the maser cloud produces a substantial asymmetry in the maser output. The ratio of output fluxes in different directions is a strong function of the ratio of the corresponding chord lengths across the cloud. Arguments are presented that the asymmetries reported here for the 'four-stream' models closely mimic the asymmetries that should be expected in a real master cloud.
