摘要：
Switching characteristics of sealed-off triggered vacuum gaps (TVG's) were examined from the viewpoint of a high repetition rate at high current discharge. With a triggered energy of 11 J, it was possible to fire the main gap in both the anode and cathode modes of operation. In repetitive discharge experiments, the TVG-tube was put in the center of the cylindrical conductor and the switching tube inductance was about 27 nH. The TVG-tube was confirmed to have capabilities for 1000 shots with a pulse current of 120 kA and a high repetition rate of 5 Hz. These experimental results indicated that the TVG-tube is a potential repetitive closing switch for the plasma X-ray source.
