An anode foil changer for pulsed, highhyphen;current, relativistic electron beam diode systems is described. This device allows multiple shots to be taken with a foilhyphen;anode diode system while maintaining a continuous vacuum. Shothyphen;tohyphen;shot reproducibility is greatly improved, while at the same time a significant time savings is realized. Also, various diagnostics and options are added to the basic design which further increase its utility and flexibility.
