Abstract

Using the central particle method, the equations of the trajectory of charged particles in an axisymmetric electrostatic mirror are obtained with an accuracy of the third order of smallness inclusive with account for relativistic effects. The conditions for spatial focusing and the coefficients of spatial aberrations in the Gaussian plane of the mirror image are determined with account for relativism. By means of numerical calculations, conditions for simultaneous elimination of spherical and axial chromatic aberrations are determined, taking into account relativistic effects, in an axisymmetric electrostatic mirror when the object plane of the mirror is aligned with its focal plane. It is shown that account for high particle velocities leads both to a shift in the position of the Gaussian image plane and a change in the focusing quality.
