Abstract :
During the two last decades, several countries have carried out works to upgrade radiographic electron generators used for hydrodynamics experiments. These studies require small X-ray spot sizes (~ 2mm), associated with very high dose rates (~ 5.109 rad/s). These goals have been successfully obtained on several facilities like AIRIX1, DARHT2, RITS 63 and Dragon I4.
