Abstract :
The space-charge-limited gun problem is solved by a numerical method that differs from the commonly employed technique of estimating the space-charge density (ρ) from trajectory information. Instead, the constitutive equations are used to find ρ in each unit cell. Results of two sample calculations are discussed.
