Abstract :
Extremely sharp rise time of high-power relativistic electron beam was achieved by using of pulse high voltage flashover on the long dielectric insert built into the cathode part of the magnetically insulated transmission line (MITL). The paper is devoted to a theoretical treatment of this process
