Abstract:Current characteristics of a plasma-filled, high-current electron gun at different accelerating voltages and densities of plasma preliminary filling the space between the cahode and collector have been investigated. Multi-gap initiation of explosive emission is performed with the use of parallel operated, resistively decoupled arc plasma sources which electrodes and tube ceramic isolators are built-in to the explosive-emission cathode. Experiments have demonstrated operability of high-current electron gun with… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
