Generation of runaway electron beams during breakdown of high pressure gases
Thus, we studied the generation of a supershort avalanche electron beam (SAEB) in different gases (SF<sub>6</sub>, CO<sub>2</sub>, argon and nitrogen) at high pressures. The beam parameters were measured with a collector for the first time at an argon pressure up to 1.0 MPa, at a CO<sub>2</sub> up to 0.8 MPa and at a SF<sub>6</sub> up to 0.3 MPa.
