Simulative research on reverse current in magnetically insulated coaxial diode

The reverse current tends to occur in the transition region of the guiding magnetic field in a magnetically insulated coaxial diode (MICD). Influence of the guiding magnetic field on characteristics of the MICD especially on the reverse current is studied by the particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation in...
