Abstract

This paper evaluates the method of gas-dynamic acceleration of ions in an inhomogeneous magnetic field in two variants - a strongly scattering and nonscattering foil F. In the first variant the presence of the inhomogeneous magnetic field leads to an increase in ion current related to increase in the flux area in the acceleration region, while in the second the increase in current is insignificant, but nevertheless the efficiency of ion acceleration is increased, because all the energy of the oscillating electrons in the accelerated region will be included in a longitudinal degree of freedom. This fact leads to an increase in the rate of expansion of the plasma synthesized from ions and oscillating electrons. Because of this increase in the mean rate of plasma expansion the efficiency of acceleration increases also.
