Abstract :
The design and construction of a generator producing a 100 GW electron beam is described. This type of generator is primarily used for laser pumping and other research studies which require the highest possible fluences. Pulse energies up to 5 kJ with electron energies in the range 100 to 500 keV are routinely delivered to experimental targets.
