Abstract :
Experimental and numerical studies on a commercial S-band (3 GHz) Reltron at repetition rates up to 10 Hz is presented. The test bench which has been developed at CEA/CESTA is described. And a cable transformer capable of delivering 200 kV, 1 kA pulses at a repetition rate of 100 Hz is also presented.
