Abstract :
Pulse power developments in high-current linear accelerators (RADLAC I) and low impedance water transmission lines (PBFA I) are reviewed. The design of Hermes III, a 1.1 MA, 15 MV linear accelerator based on these technologies is discussed and initial data on the development of this accelerator is presented.
