The working group on electrical breakdown in vacuum was charged with considering all possible mechanisms by which electrical breakdown might occur either through the vacuum or along insulator bushings in large area electron beam emitter assemblies. It was understood that present systems need to be scaled up, by an order of magnitude or more in both beam area and total energy, to meet demands for higher power and larger size machines, and that increases in the e-beam current density and transport efficiency are also sought. A consideration of the consequences of such a scale-up was pertinent to many of the topics listed in the working-group agenda. Our group attempted to address each of these topics. 18 refs.
