  • the bruises 4, which are about 28 mm long are on by means of a short transition zone 11 the central area 3 connected.
  • the transition zone 11 is approximately 2 mm long. In it there is a smooth transition between the curved wall the central area and the straight contours of the bruises instead of.
  • the radius of curvature in the area of the transition is typically about 2 mm.
  • molybdenum foils 12 with a length of 20 mm and a width of 3.5 mm arranged approximately in the middle. They are vacuum tight embedded in the bruise.
  • At the distal ends of the Squeezes are formed on cylindrical tube lugs 13 with an outer diameter of 8 mm and an inner diameter of 5 mm.
  • the Pipe lugs are each about 10 mm long.
