Abstract:In this paper, the relativistic Brillouin flow in a crossed-field gap is investigated. For this, the case of a planar magnetron is considered. In contrast to previous studies, it is assumed that the electron discharge occurs in a timescale that is long compared to the magnetic diffusion time in the metal. It is found that the Brillouin flow properties and the overall scenario for the loss of magnetic insulation are different from the short pulse case. In particular, it is shown that two branches of equilibrium… Show more
