Electromagnetic field in the resonator of neutron generator's hydrogen ion source

Abstract

Determine complex conductivity of the microwave discharge plasma in resonator of the ion source. Using CST Microwave Studio allowed us to calculate dimensions of the resonance microwave window providing necessary reflection coefficient and to find effective amount of microwave discharge plasma from condition of resonance preservation. This makes it possible to determine value of electromagnetic filed in plasma and get it relation with power of electromagnetic wave. Computations show that fulfillment of the condition electron cyclotron resonance results to large reduction of electromagnetic field amplitude.
