Flash II--a terawatt pulsed electron beam accelerator and its applications Aizi, Qiu; Min, Lu 43 PARTICLE ACCELERATORS; ACCELERATORS; ELECTRON BEAMS; TERAWATT POWER RANGE; MARX GENERATORS; PULSES; RELATIVISTIC RANGE; REVIEWS; USES Flash II is a pulsed electron beam accelerator with a diode impedance less than 1 Ohm and beam current more than 1 MA. An overview is presented of the development of high power pulsed REB accelerators in China and abroad, including the successful development of Flash II, which is a major step forward for China in this field. The principle of operation and construction of the Marx generator, water-dielectric coaxial line and diode are described, and experimental research performed on the accelerator since 1990 is presented, including simulation of thermo-mechanical effects of X-rays on material structure, fabrication of an excimer laser with electron beam pumping and generation of high power microwave radiation.
