TL;DR: The 80-TW "Z" pulsed power facility at Sandia National Laboratories as discussed by the authors is the largest pulsed-power device in the world today, and it can discharge up to 22'MJ of energy stored in its capacitor banks into a current pulse that rises in 100'ns and peaks at a current as high as 30 MA in low-inductance cylindrical targets.
