Simulation tools for pinched-electron-beam radiographic diodes

We describe capabilities of an integrated software suite to simulate pinched-electron-beam diodes for pulsed radiography. In contrast to other reported work using particle-in-cell methods, we employ a ray-tracing code (Trak) with advanced capabilities for modeling beam-generated magnetic fields. Ray...
