Relativistic electron dynamics in a cusped magnetic field
(American Institute of Physics, 1974-08)Single-particle motion of relativistic electrons in a cusped magnetic field has been studied both analytically and experimentally. The Lagrangian formulation is used to solve for the electron trajectories in some simple ... -
Single particle and collective effects observed in the electron beam of the Maryland era experiment
(IEEE, 1975-06)The formation of rotating, relativistic electron beams with properties suitable for collective ion acceleration has been studied under a variety of experimental conditions. A straight, cylindrical, relativistic electron ... -
Relativistic electron dynamics in a cusped magnetic field with a downstream drift region
(American Institute of Physics, 1975-12)Studies are reported of the motion of relativistic electrons injected first through a narrow magnetic cusp and then into a downstream region in which the particle motion is assumed to be adiabatic. Experiments performed ... -
Controlled collection field propagation for ion acceleration using a slow wave structure
(IEEE, 1977-06)Acceleration of ions by intense relativistic electron beams in a vacuum has been investigated using the injector of the Maryland ERA project. Proton energies above 16 MeV and proton beam currents above 10 kA have been ... -
Radial and axial compression of a hollow electron beam using an asymmetric magnetic cusp
(American Institute of Physics, 1977-09)The injection of hollow. relativistic electron beams through a narrow asymmetric magnetic cusp field has been investigated analytically. Preliminary experimental results are in good agreement with the analytical theory. -
Study of collective ion acceleration in vacuum
(American Institute of Physics, 1979-05)Theoretical and experimental studies of the collective acceleration of ions by a linear electron beam in an evacuated drift tube are presented. A one-dimensional theoretical model of the collective acceleration process ... -
Experimental studies of heavy ion collection acceleration at the University of Maryland
(IEEE, 1979-06)The collective acceleration of ions (H,C,N) from a well-localized ion source immediately downstream of a relativistic electron beam diode is experimentally investigated, The ions are produced either in a wellconfined gas ...
