Miles,
   
  The caps look very similar to the ones inside of the impedance matching boxes on the GE Fanuc laser resonators that I service at work. They couple the power supplies to the discharge tubes.

These sound like big doorknob caps. Ceramics aren't polarised. They sound 
small to be used as energy discharge into a flashlamp so presumably had some 
other function.
