Consider an electron beam of uniform circular cross-section with a diameter of 1 mm. The electrons are accelerated from the cathode to the anode, which are separated by 1 m. The electrons are generated at the cathode and therefore have negligible velocity at this position. The electrons accelerate at a rate of 108 ?/?2 between the cathode and anode. The current density at the anode is 104 ?/?2 . Find the current density as a function of position between the...
