A magnetically confined, oscillating electron bombardment source has been designed which delivers high currents of noble gas ions in the 1 to 10 keV energy range. The energy spread of the beam was 2 + 1 eV using an anode potential of 45 V. Pressure in the source chamber was measured during source operation so that accurate gas efficiency measurements could be made. The optimum gas efficiency obtained for argon at 5 kV extraction potential and an operating pressure of 4 x lo-’ torr was 59 per cent. Mass analysis of source output showed that when the source was operated with research grade argon (99.999 per cent pure) impurity ions in the beam consisted of only 0.5 per cent Nz+, 0.75 per cent O,+, 0.75 per cent H,O+ Filament life is extremely long, well and 0.70 per cent Art+. over 750 hr. Analysis of ion production rate and plasma density ,shows that a large contribution to electron emission is made by the secondary electrons produced at the tungsten filament due to positive ion bombardment. The secondary electron emission current was found to be as much as 30 per cent of the true thermionic emission current and is not negligible as (Authors) previous investigators have assumed. C. E.

tivity in a magnetic shock tube is treated when the driving magnetic field is very strong and varies with time, being induced by the current discharge from capacitors. Two cases are treated ; one is the one-dimensional flow with a planar current sheet perpendicular to the flow, and the other is the cylindrically expanding flow with a cylindrical current sheet. The problem is analogous to the hypersonic flow past a slender body, and similarity solutions exist if the driving magnetic field varies proportionally to tk-1 (t is the time). Numerical results for several values of k are presented. For a general case when the magnetic field varies as an arbitrary function of time, an approximate method of calculation by using the concept of local (Author) similarity is also presented. J. Phys.
