Ejection of Particles from a Charged Infinite Strip.

Abstract

Trajectories of charged particles emitted from an infinite strip at a fixed potential with respect to and embedded in a unipotential ambient plane are calculated. Separation curves that divide emitted particles into those that escape from the emission plane and those that return to it are obtained. Results are compared with trajectories calculated in a previously studied, simpler model. Asymptotic properties are examined. The case of particles emitted from an embedded circular disk is discussed. (Author)
