Kinetic Model of Pulsed High Current Electron Beam Propagation in the Gas Medium

Abstract:

The theoretical model for investigation of the electron beam propagation in the gas medium is developed. The main feature of the model is the possible to analyze the time evolution of the differential current which allows obtaining the energy distribution function of electron. The equations for electromagnetic fields created by the electron beam are the time dependence function. The elastic collision and ionization are considered as a basic interaction processes between beam and gas medium.
