Improving the efficiency of suppression of electron conductivity in the vacuum accelerator neutron tubes with coaxial diode system

Abstract

Discussed two options for increasing the magnetic isolation efficiency of the electron component in a vacuum neutron tube with coaxial geometry for the acceleration of deuterons. Computer analysis of the previously developed diode systems with magnetic insulation has shown that the suppression ratio does not exceed 50%. The proposed new options of suppression systems used the current ring and diaphragm, located near the edge of the cylindrical anode. Computer analysis showed that for these acceleration geometries the suppression factor could exceed 97%.
