Abstract
The systematized results are presented of an investigation of the process of the efficient extraction of ions, by a pulsed electric field, from the surface of a plasma moving at a velocity of ≥ 104 m/sec under the conditions of small accelerating diodes. A mathematical model is analyzed of the propagation of a plasma bunch formed by a laser pulse (E las<1 J) in a quasicylindrical diode system. The possibilities are considered of increasing the current of the extracted ions by utilizing the phenomenon of magnetic confinement of electrons, and diode systems with a transparent anode. The designs of small acceleration tubes for generating neutron pulses are presented.
