Abstract
An examination is made of the physical processes in electron sources with plasma emitter based on discharge reflection with a hollow cathode. The mechanisms of ionization of the gas in the cavity are studied theoretically. Calculations are made of the plasma parameters in the intercathode discharge space, taking into account features of the particle motion in the crossed electric and magnetic fields. It is shown that the emission canal has an important effect on the source characteristics. An analysis is made of the features of primary shaping of the beam. Experience in the practical application of the electron sources is described.
