Abstract :
The paper describes results of the experimental research of generation of intense pulsed electron beam in S-band RF gun with driven plasma cathode. There has been designed experimental sample of the cathode based on ferroelectric ceramics. At the RF gun output the generated electron beam has pulsed current of 6 A, pulse duration of 50-90 ns and particle energy ≅ 500 keV.
