Description

Transportation of a high-current ion beam (HCIB) with various currents was studied in the presence of accompanying and additional electron beams' injection in the linear induction accelerator (LIA) section. The investigations were carried out by means three-dimensional numerical simulation within the framework of the complete Vlasov-Maxwell system of equations. The parameters of the system and beams have been optimized in so way, that the ion beam quality remains acceptable for a number of important technological applications at the exit of the LIA section.
