Kinetic model for the evaluation of spatial charge effects in retarding field analysers applied to vacuum arc devices
We develop a kinetic formalism to determine the charge spatial distribution and the self-consistent electrostatic potential in the grid-collector region of a retarding field analyser system applied to vacuum arc devices. This work is the natural extension of a previous work where a uniform spatial d...
