Simulations of the generation and transport of a 5 MV end-point x-ray beam on a pulsed power generator

An experimental campaign was recently completed at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory’s Mercury pulsed-power facility, where the feasibility of using a 5 MV inductive voltage adder (IVA) as a pulsed photoneutron source was studied. In these experiments, a large-area bremsstrahlung diode was fielded...
