Description

Investigations of the focusing of high-current relativistic electron beams for achieving a pulsed thermonuclear reaction have been made on the URAL and MS accelerators. Injection and transport of a disk-type electron beam into a cusp magnetic field allows approximately > 25% of the beam to be deposited onto the surface of a centrally located target. With co-axial lines electron beams have been focused onto targets with 85% efficiency. The mechanism for sharp and effective focusing by pin-type cathodes is discussed. (author)
