Abstract :
URT-0,5 repetitive pulsed electron accelerator with a semiconductor opening switch and a vacuum diode with a metal-dielectric cathode were created for commercial application. The electric circuit of this unit is based on a SOS-technology and utilizes a thyratron-magnetic compression of the energy. The accelerator produces an electron beam with an electron energy of 500 keV, a current of 200 A, an FWHM pulse duration of 50 ns, a pulse repetition rate up to 200 pps, and a diameter of cross-sectional area 10 cm. As an X-ray generator it had produced 30, 4 Gy per minute at 5 cm from the anode on the axis
