The possibility of increasing the current of negative hydrogen ions extracted in the longitudinal direction from a Penning discharge with a metal hydride cathode by reducing the anode-cathode distance is shown. The features ...

On the basis of numerical calculations, the experimental results obtained by the authors in the study of the source of negative hydrogen ions of the Penning type with a metal hydride cathode are explained. It was shown ...

The features of modulation of negatively charged particle flux extracted along the magnetic field from Penning discharge with metal hydride cathode have been investigated. The separation of negative ions from coextracted ...

The features of H⁻ ion emission from gas-feed-free Penning-type ion source with metal hydride cathode have been studied in pulsating regime. The metal hydride cathode provided local injection of hydrogen in activated state ...
