Abstract

The dynamics of a high-current proton beam in the cusp magnetic field and in the uniform magnetic field of the drift region in the presence of an accelerating field in the cusp region and of two types of compensating electron beams (before and after the cusp) has been studied. It is shown that for the taken beam parameters and magnetic field it is impossible to accelerate a proton beam of the density higher than 1012 cm-3 with maintaining its initial transverse size and monoenergeticity.
