An Accelerating Voltage Generator for Compact Pulsed Neutron Sources

摘要

A multistage generator of high-voltage pulses with a scroll geometry of spark switches, which is produced according to the Marx scheme, is presented. The device is designed for a small pulsed neutron source and makes it possible to obtain accelerating-voltage pulses with amplitudes of up to 450 kV at a stored energy of up to 50 J and a load current of up to 1.5 kA.
