Fast beam shutter

The first prototype was made at Somiya Lab. by Tobias. The initial test yielded less than 1msec shut down time. (The shutter was 1mm away from the center of the beam)

Larger separation from the beam center is necessary to avoid scattering by the shutter blade (roughly 1cm). Bigger capacitor is necessary.

The prototype system exploded and currently it is not usable.

Cost to make one is less than 10000JPY.
