  • Abstract
    We are studying several competing gas switch geometries in an attempt to design an optimum switch for these applications as well as to increase our knowledge of the physics of the switching process. Initial results have been obtained with a 6-stage, air-insulated switch based on a design by B. Koval chuk.
