Numerical simulation of the generation of secondary electrons in the High Current Experiment

Electron effects in the High Current Experiment (HCX) are studied via computer simulation. An approximate expression for the secondary electron yield for a potassium ion striking stainless steel is derived and compared with experimental results. This approximate expression has a peak of roughly 55 e...
