Abstract
A survey is given of studies on electrostatic particle accelerators. The main attention is given to problems of increasing the energy of the accelerated particles and the beam power in electrostatic generators. A comparison of the different methods of voltage stabilization is made. In conclusion a brief discussion is given of cascade generators designed for the production of high-power beams.
