Out of 0.02 ohms, that's a guarantee!

Out of 50 ohms, a pretty good match should be reasonable, up to whatever the 
electrical length of the primary winding is (at which point it looks like a 
transmission line over the secondary "ground plane").

Easy enough.  This is a cross section.  Imagine it's revolved around the 
axis on the right (so the gray core part is a torus, and everything else is 
a disk, cylinder or hole shape).

Oh, the copper colored vertical sides connect to a plate shorting across the 
top, of course.

I'd show a picture of the finished thing, but it's pretty boring, like 
looking at a bank vault from the "concrete walls" side. :^)

Or if you want an inline structure (like a coaxial current transformer), you 
start with a pipe, slit it, then put a larger pipe on over the slit (with 
discs to short it to the first pipe, on either side of the slit).  The core 
and windings go inside the space thus created.


In particle accelerators, the bunches are so small (sub-ns) that they can't 
afford any windings at all; transmission lines are simply connected in 
parallel across the gap!
