- Title
Analysis of drifting electron concentration in a self-magnetically insulated ion diode.

- Abstract
The drifting electron concentration in a self-magnetically insulated ion diode is analyzed using a TEMP-4M accelerator operating in a double bipolar pulse regime with the first pulse (300-600 ns and 150-200 kV) being negative and the second (120 ns and 250-300 kV) being positive. The electron concentration in the drift region is shown to be 10-10 cm. It is established that the Lorentz force acting on electrons in crossed electric and magnetic fields is 150-200 times greater than the Coulomb repulsion force, which ensures a higher electron concentration in the drift region as compared with the space charge region.
