Abstract :
Summary form only given. Experimental research in dense gas of the discharge generating fast (running away) electron and ion beams (with particle energies from units up to hundreds keV and currents amplitude up to several kA) by impression of potential U to a high-voltage electrode with rising rate zeta = dU/dt above 100 kV/ns are resulted. Comparative capabilities of such discharge various forms to generate fast electron and ion beams in different gas mixes are discussed
