New method for the design of high perveance guns

Abstract

In this paper we describe new methods for the design of electron and ion guns. The designer of these guns has always been limited in the past in his choice of gun designs to meet particular specifications, and considerable effort has been made over the years to make gun design methods more versatile. It is our purpose in this paper to describe two new methods which should increase this versatility. Before discussing these methods in detail, it would be well to put them in proper perspective.

The research reported in this paper was jointly sponsored by the Lewis Research Center, NASA, Cleveland, Ohio, under Contract Nas 8–1509, and by the Air Force Systems Command, Rome Air Development Center, Griffiss Air Force Base, New York, under Contract AF 30(602)-2575.
