Nanosecond electron beams compact generator

In the report there is described a small-scale accelerator providing the storage energy of 40 J, electron energy of 200 keV, the released into the air beam current of 1 kA and the current pulse duration of 30–40 ns at the half-height. In the accelerator capacitive energy storage the multi-channel commutation is implemented ensuring the output current pulse front of 10 ns, while the inductiveness is 120 nH. The apparatus gross weight is approximately 100 kg.
