AbstractParticle-in-cell (PIC) simulation of a two-foil magnetoinsulated vircator is carried out. Evolution of electron phase portrait has been studied. Formation of two regions with a squeezed state of electron beam is observed, separated from each other by an electronic phase vortex. The power of two-foil vircator's microwave generation was calculated. It is demonstrated that in the phase vortex mode, the power of vircator's microwave radiation may excel the outcome power of a usual one-foil vircator by two times. The spectral characteristics of two-foil vircators were studied. It was found that it is necessary to change the energy of electrons for the variation of primary microwave generation frequency.

This paper presents particle-in-cell simulation of the reflex triode with radially diverging magnetized electron beam. Dynamics of the electron beam and generation characteristics of the reflex triode are studied in the work. It is shown that two virtual cathodes are formed in it. It was calculated that the peak power of the microwave radiation reaches P=19 MW at the beam current I0=5 kA and potential of the cathode Uc=‒100 kV. There is a peak in the microwave radiation spectrum at the frequency ν = 5.2 GHz.

Abstract. With two-dimensional (2-D) particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations we investigate the evolution of the double layer (DL) driven by magnetic reconnection. Our results show that an electron beam can be generated in the separatrix region as magnetic reconnection proceeds. This electron beam could trigger the ion-acoustic instability; as a result, a DL accompanied with electron holes (EHs) can be found during the nonlinear evolution stage of this instability. The spatial size of the DL is about 10 Debye lengths. This DL propagates along the magnetic field at a velocity of about the ion-acoustic speed, which is consistent with the observation results.
