Abstract :
A method for effectively suppressing the electron loading in accelerator tubes is described, which utilises transverse magnetic fields. The electron trapping is achieved without affecting tube optics or producing undesirable ion beam deflections at the tube exit, even when the stack voltage gradient is disturbed.
