The capacitor IS the transformer's primary.
Seems right to me, you guys be the judge.

...
storage capacitor formed by thin stack of two or more conductive plates that
also serve as the single turn primary winding of a pulse transformer.
...
This arrangement totally eliminates any stray inductances due to the interconnects
between a separate energy storage capacitor and transformer primary winding.
...
breakdown process is very fast and the inductance of the sheet current loop
is very low resulting in an extremely high rate of magnetic flux change within
the boundary of the sheet current loop.
...
Voltages exceeding ten kilovolts per turn are easily obtainable, thus proving the means
of generating short, fast rise, high voltage pulses from a very low impedance.
