15-kJ LC generator: Low inductance device for a 100-GW pulsed electron accelerator

  • 1. Naval Research Laboratory, Washington, D.C. 20375

Description

The design and construction of a 15-kJ LC generator is described. This type of generator is used for its low inductance compared with more conventional Marx generators. The generator described consists of 20 capacitors rated at 80 kV, 5 reversing switches, and 1 extra-high-voltage transfer switch. The generator was built as a primary store for a high current, high power (300 kA, 100 GW) field-emission electron-beam generator
