Reflectometry of Picosecond Emission and Discharge Processes in a Gas-Filled High-Voltage Coaxial Line

Emission and discharge processes during the passage of high-voltage subnanosecond pulses with variable amplitude and duration along a gas-filled coaxial transmission line (CTL) are studied. Homogeneous CTL as well as CTL with special disk inserts (electric field enhancers initiating electron emission processes) on its central electrode were used. Data on the propagation and distortion of pulses we...
