摘要: Mechanisms for energetic ion generation that could explain the observed energies in anode plasma of a magnetically insulated diode [Phys. Rev. A 39, 5842 (1989)], are discussed. It is suggested strong electric fields result from large density gradients on few tens micrometers near cause acceleration. Steady state as well time‐dependent accelerations examined.
