Abstract

A study is made of the physical phenomena characteristic of nonlinear oscillations in a Bursian diode in the regime with a virtual cathode. The question of how the shape of the oscillations varies as the beam current density increases is investigated for the first time. Sharp jumps in the time evolution of the convective current are revealed, and their causes are explained. The reason is found for the onset of long-lived electrons, and their properties are analyzed.
