Abstract :
The design of pulsed electron accelerator for radiation technologies is considered in the report. The pulsed electron source consists from pulsed Marx high voltage generator, vacuum electron source with explosive emission cathode. The measurements system for beam parameters on the basis of PXI system with high-performance National Instruments components and LabVIEW is described.
