Hermes and Helia simulations, 1988

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6411792

Recent MAGIC code simulations of Hermes-III and Helia diodes in regular and reversed polarity are summarized. The effects of varying the cathode shape and including ions are discussed. The latest work on B/sub theta/-lens systems as a method of beam control is described. Problems with reversed polarity, as modeled with the four-feed Helia system, are considered, and the re-entrant MITL technique for avoiding reversed polarity is studied. 15 refs., 38 figs., 3 tabs.
