Abstract

Pulse-periodic accelerator of electrons with completely solid system of energy commutation and frequency of pulse sequence from 1 to 100 Hz was developed. The section of evacuated electron beam is 50×10 cm² (in anode plane). Maximum amplitude of voltage pulse on accelerating tube is U_max=750 kV, density and duration of pulse of current of evacuated beam are j_e̅=1A/cm² (at S=500 cm²) and τ_e̅=57 ns, respectively. Duration of bremsstrahlung pulse τ_γ=25 ns, dose per pulse D_γ≅3 P (on anode).
