The paper describes experimental studies of Plasma-Focus (PF) discharges carried out within the modernized PF- 360 facility, which was operated with an additional D2-gas puffing into the region of the collapsing current sheath and PF pinch formation, i.e. into space in front of the electrode outlet. The main aim of these studies was to increase a neutron yield from PF discharges by using fast deuteron beams, which are usually emitted from a pinch column and which can interact with additional D2-gas target.
