Investigation of Short-Pulse Electron-Beam Propagation

Abstract

Experiments were performed studying the propagation of a 1-MeV, 2-8 kA, 10-ns electron beam, and possible comparisons of this data with theory are recommended. Radial boundary conditions were varied by performing experiments in a glass guide tube 7.6 cm in diameter, the same tube with a conducting screen inside, and a 3.4-m-diam vacuum chamber.
