Abstract

Abstract A 1.5 m × 1.0 m × 0.6 m NeHe streamer chamber and high voltage pulsing system capable of 1.0 MV pulses with widths continuously variable from 10 to 20 ns has been developed by a University of Illinois - ANL group. The design and construction of the dc fast charge regulator, Marx generator, Blumlein pulse shaping network, transmission line, and chamber are described. Studies on the effects of increasing field emission and injection of free electrons into the pulse shaping network gap on pulse amplitude stability are reported. Under normal operating conditions, pulse amplitude stability of 2–3% rms has been achieved. Photographic and pulse monitoring systems are described and operating experience over two experimental runs is summarized.
