Abstract :
Description of a pulsed-periodic electron accelerator with electron energy of 200-250 keV, beam current up to 500 A, current pulse length up to 500 ns, pulse repetition rate up to 300 Hz assembled on the basis of a Marx generator with blowing-off the switches and vacuum diode with a multipoint cathode is presented. Possibility to increase the cathode operation resource owing to adjustment of the point heights by the emitter feeding mechanism was approbated.
