    Abstract: An emission current control system for balancing the individual emission currents from an array of hollow cathodes (12, 14) has current sensors (28, 30) for determining the current drawn by each cathode from a power supply (18). Each current sensor has an output signal which has a magnitude proportional to the current. The current sensor output signals (V1, V2) are averaged, the average value so obtained being applied to a respective controller (32, 34) for controlling the flow of an ion source material through each cathode. Also applied to each controller are the respective sensor output signals (V1, V2) for each cathode and a common reference signal. The flow of source material through each hollow cathode is thereby made proportional to the current drawn by that cathode, the average current drawn by all of the cathodes, and the reference signal. Thus, the emission current of each cathode is controlled such that each is made substantially equal to the emission current of each of the other cathodes. When utilized as a component of a multiple hollow cathode ion propulsion motor, the emission current control system of the invention provides for balancing the thrust of the motor about the thrust axis and also for preventing premature failure of a hollow cathode source due to operation above a maximum rated emission current.

    Abstract: Embodiments include methods and systems to perform computed tomography. Respiratory signal data and imaging data associated with a heart can be received, and a target area of the heart can be determined responsive to the imaging data. An initial energy and a direction of a proton beam to deliver a Bragg peak of the proton beam to the target area can be determined. The initial energy and the direction of the proton beam then can be modified responsive to the respiratory signal data to generate a modified initial energy and a modified direction. A proton computed tomography controller can be instructed to deliver the proton beam to the heart at the modified initial energy and the modified direction.

    Abstract: In einer Ionenerzeugungsvorrichtung (1, 1-1 und 1-2) entladen sich Entladungselektroden (21 bis 24) und erzeugen Ionen, wenn sie eine Ausgangsspannung aufnehmen, welche von einer Leistungsquelle (3) geliefert wird. Ein Entladungsbeurteilungsteil (4) beurteilt, ob sich jede Entladungselektrode (21 bis 24) korrekt entlädt. Ein Ausgangssteuerteil führt eine Regelung der Ausgangsspannung der Leistungsquelle (3) basierend auf dem Beurteilungsergebnis des Entladungsbeurteilungsteils (4) durch, sodass ein Verhältnis der Anzahl der Entladungselektroden (21 bis 24), welche sich korrekt entladen, zu einer Gesamtzahl der Entladungselektroden (21 bis 24) in dem Entladungselektrodenteil (2) nicht geringer ist als ein vorherbestimmtes Verhältnis.

    Abstract: An electron gun is modulated by an optoelectronic switching device. This switching device comprises a modulated light source and at least one GaAs or Si solid-state optoelectronic switch, this switch being non-conductive when not illuminated and conductive when illuminated by the modulated light source; the device also includes components to transmit the light from the source to the switch(es). In one embodiment, the modulated light source is a laser and in a second embodiment the source is a continuous source externally modulated by a mechanical or electrooptical device. The optoelectronic switching device is connected between a high-voltage source and the cathode of an electron gun, thus modulating the cathode. The invention is particularly applicable to microwave electron tubes.

    Abstract: The invention relates to an electron source (20) formed of at least one elementary electron emitter (31, 31b) comprising an emissive tip (34) having a very small radius of curvature and operating in accordance with the field emission principle. The invention applies particularly in the case of constructions employing technologies used for integrated circuits or in the area of thin-layered films, these technologies enabling a plurality of elementary emitters to be produced on one substrate. … The aim of the invention is in particular to enable an electron beam (F1) to be produced, the intensity of which is independent of possible variations in electron emission by the emissive tip 34. … The emissive tip (34) interacts with an extractor electrode (27), and according to a characteristic of the invention, a control electrode (29), having a negative potential relative to the extractor electrode (27), is arranged downstream of this latter in relation to the sense of propagation (41) of the beam (F1). … …
