A pulsed generator of X-ray bremsstrahlung with a high peak exposure rate

A new pulsed generator of X-ray bremsstrahlung based on an inductive energy storage and a plasma opening switch is described. The radiation parameters are as follows: the peak exposure rate is as high as 5 × 10 9 R/s, and the dose is as high as 800 R.
