For testing and application purposes we have built a new small Marx generator capable to run in a repetitive regime. Its repeating frequency is currently up to 1 Hz. The generator is covered by metal sheets and feeds the CAPEX facility and ensures its full independence on the CAPEX-U machine (using another Marx generator). This paper reports on the first experimental results of a new experimental set-up of the CAPEX apparatus (repetitive lasing at 46.9 nm), mainly on set-up description, electrical parameters, and laser pulse stability in the repetitive regime.
