Abstract
An analysis is made of the fundamental design principles of the SINUS high-current nanosecond pulse-periodic electron accelerators developed at the Institute of High-Current Electronics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. In order to make it possible to operate the accelerators at a high pulse-repetition frequency, the pulse shaping lines were charged using a Tesla transformer with a ferromagnetic core, incorporated into a line. Results are presented of an investigation of the operating stability of a high-voltage gas-discharge spark gap. Methods are described for matching the pulse shaping lines to the vacuum diodes. Results are presented of an investigation of cold explosive-emission cathodes operating at a high pulserepetition frequency. Several developed accelerators are described having an electron energy of 0.2–2 MeV, a current of 0.2–20 kA, a pulse duration of 4–40 nsec, and a pulse-repetition frequency of up to 1000 Hz. A brief description is given of certain possible areas of application of high-current pulse-periodic accelerators.
