Abstract
Abstract An arrangement for rapidly switching a high frequency magnetic field includes parallel resonant circuits which are supplied with sine or cosine current, respectively, comprise coils which are arranged cross-wise in respect of each other and a switching member is connected parallel to each coil. The switching member comprises a controllable voltage source which is connected by way of an RC circuit to an end of the resonant circuit, and a transistor is connected between the other end of the resonant circuit and a reference potential.
