Abstract
Summary form only given, as follows. A compact pulsed power generator based on an inductive energy storage system has been constructed and tested. The generator, which has been named ASO-1, is about 210 cm high. Parallel fuses and plasma erosion opening switches are used as two-stage opening switches. The operation of the generator is described. It has been confirmed by experiment that the parallel fuses vaporize simultaneously. Pulsed power of about 250 kV and several tens of kiloamperes is obtained with a risetime <150 ns.<>
