Abstract
A sub-nanosecond rise time megavolt pulse generator is disclosed. The generator utilizes an induction energy store together with electron beams for generating a sub-nanosecond high voltage pulse wave-front. The electron beams are deflected to establish the wave-front. In a preferred form multiple electron beams together with a waveguide of particular shape provide simultaneous converging wave-fronts that are directed to a local area.
