Two separate topics on a pellet injection activity at the multimirror trap GOL-3 are presented. The first topic is connected with studies of influence of a high-energy-density plasma on solids. A carbon pellet of 2-mm diameter was injected into the plasma for this purpose. The second discussed topic is a status of works on a cryogenic pellet injector for plasma fueling at GOL-3.
