Abstract (en)

[origin: CA2790798A1] The invention relates to a DC high voltage source (81) comprising: a capacitor stack having a first electrode (37), which can be brought to a first potential, having a second electrode (39), which is arranged concentrically with respect to the first electrode and can be brought to a second potential that is different from the first potential, having a plurality of intermediate electrodes (33) which are arranged concentrically with respect to each other and which are arranged concentrically between the first electrode (37) and the second electrode (39) and can be brought to a sequence of increasing potential levels that are between the first potential and the second potential, a switching device (35) to which the electrodes (33, 37, 39) of the capacitor stack are connected and which is designed such that, during operation of the switching device (35), the electrodes (33, 37, 39) of the capacitor stack that are arranged concentrically with respect to each other can be brought to the increasing potential levels, wherein the distance of the electrodes (33, 37, 39) of the capacitor stack decreases toward the central electrode (37). Furthermore, the invention relates to an accelerator comprising such a DC high voltage source.
