A research activity involving the detailed consideration of novel high voltage transformers (HVTs) for pulsed-power applications has recently begun at Loughborough University (LU). Although the main goal is the demonstration of a compact and lightweight unit employing magnetic self insulation under vacuum conditions, the initial stage of the work is directed towards the development of a conventional air-cored HVT as a main component in a compact power supply for HPM sources. In cooperation with the Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI), the power supply has been tested with a HPM source of the vircator type.
