Abstract: | Two-dimensional spatial distributions of the electric field and current density in a non-self-sustained discharge controlled by a fast electron beam were calculated in the quasineutral plasma approximation. The calculations were carried out for a gas-discharge chamber with an antistreamer electrode grid placed in parallel to the output window of the ionizer. The voltage drop near the grid surface that appears due to the inhomogeneity of the spatial distribution of the current density was calculated. The fraction of the discharge current that passes the grid and flows onto the foil separating the vacuum volume of the ionizer from the gas-discharge chamber was estimated. The dependence of the calculated values on the geometric parameters of the electrode grid and its position with respect to the output of the ionizer was analyzed. |
