Abstract

The paper presents the experimental results on generating and transforming the ribbon (3.5 X 130 cm) beam with the electron energy 1 MeV, beam current 70 kA and pulse duration 8 microsecond(s) . The 70% efficiency of the energy transfer from a capacitor storage to the ribbon beam has been achieved. The close value of the efficiency has been obtained for transforming the ribbon beam to the compressed circular one at the optimal conditions. According to the measurements the angular spread of the compressed beam is less than 10⁰.
