Simulation of high current diodes for bremsstrahlung production

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5657429

A 2-D electromagnetic PIC code (MAGIC) is used to study the design of Helia and Hermes-III electron diodes. Important issues include impedance vs. flow pattern, control of electron angles at the convertor, real-pulse and ion effects, and coupling to the MITL. This series of vugraphs presents the study.
