Abstract
An experiment on generation and transmission of an intensive electron beam through a magnetic mirror has been carried out at the GOL-3 magnetic trap. An adapted theory and numerical modelling were used to find a maximal beam current for which no beam electrons are reflected. The effect of space charge and magnetic mirror of the reflection were taken into account. A comparison of the computed limiting current with experimental value allowed us to validate a hypothesis that the appearance of reflected electrons is responsible for electric breakdown in the electron gun.
