Theory and simulation of nonrelativistic elliptic-beam formation with one-dimensional Child-Langmuir flow characteristics
A theory of nonrelativistic, laminar, elliptic-beam formation is presented. The beam is shown to have the one-dimensional Child-Langmuir flow form. An analytic expression for the electrostatic potential outside the beam is derived. Equipotentials corresponding to electrode surfaces are computed nume...
