Abstract :
Repetitive pulsed power technology has a lot of potential for growth. After a relatively quiet decade in the 90s, customer interest is increasing. With new interest comes new demands on the technology. Orders of magnitude advances will be needed over the next ten years. This paper speculates where some such improvements may be made. It does not attempt to provide a complete overview of the possibilities. Rather it attempts to identify a few areas where large growth seems possible over the next decade, and. to highlight the drivers for substantial breakthroughs
