Abstract :
A compact subnanosecond, high-current electron accelerator producing an annular electron beam of duration up to 300 – 400 ps, energy ∼ 250 keV, and current up to 1 kA has been developed to study transient processes in pulsed power microwave devices. The measuring and recording techniques used to experimentally investigate the dynamics of the beam current pulse and the transformation of the electron energy during the transportation of the beam in a longitudinal magnetic field are described. The experimental data obtained are compared with the predictions of a numerical simulation.
