The paper describes the operation and design specifics of wide-aperture accelerators based on non-self-maintained high-voltage glow discharge. Shown are the advantages of these accelerators over the conventional accelerators based on a number of longitudinal thermal emitters. The paper presents the main characteristics and parameters of accelerators developed at the Efremov Institute of Electrophysical Apparatus, Saint-Petersburg, Russia, and applied in different fields of science and technology.
