Abstract
An accelerating tube for an electrostatic particle accelerator is composed of a plurality of rings of insulating material interleaved with annular metal discs. The discs are interconnected externally of the tube by resistor bridges in a manner to provide a decoupled zone somewhere along the potential gradient and within this zone particle trapping electrodes are placed to take out low energy particles near the periphery of the main beam with reduced secondary particle generation.
