Research abstract
Applied Physical Electronics, L.C. (or APELC) proposes the development of the full Marx generator system described in the solicitation. It is believed that the thermal solutions, sought by the solicitation, require a systems-approach, which requires the full generator development. The proposed approach follows work previously done by APELC for AFRL, but addresses the high repetition rate and the subsequent thermal issues. The Phase1 is proposed for several experiments to demonstrate the proposed sources of heat, as well as to demonstrate design solutions.
