Abstract :
There are several phases of operation of the betatron, used as a source of X rays, which require the application of electronic circuits. This paper discusses the problems of electron injection, electron ejection, and X-ray monitoring. It reviews a set of electronic circuits which have been found satisfactory in solving these problems.
