CALCULATION OF THE RADIATION-INDUCED CONDUCTION CURRENT IN DIELECTRICS IRRADIATED WITH HIGH-ENERGY ELECTRONS AND PROTONS HAVING A TWO-COMPONENT MAXWELLIAN DISTRIBUTION

摘要

A method is considered for calculating the distributions of the space-charge field and of the radiation-induced conduction current over the thickness of dielectric coatings, and of the potential of their open surface cor- rected for the space-charge field, during interactions with electrons and protons. The method is used to con- sider these quantities for a two-component Maxwellian distribution of the charged particles. The optimal thickness of coatings on artificial satellites is also determined.
