OSTI ID:4835157
A gas discharge apparatus is described that consists of means for inducing a pinched ring discharge in gas in a toroidal vessel. The means is adapted to produce a relatively fast initial rise of discharge current followed by a relatively slow further rise to the final value. The means may consist of a low-energy bank of fast capacitors which are discharged through a low-inductance primary winding of the transformer to initiate the discharge, and a cheaper form of energy store, such as a slow capacitor bank or an inductor, for supplying the remaining energy relatively slowly thereafter to a separate high-inductance primary winding.
