Abstract
The pseudospark-produced electron beam has been experimentally investi gated, The measurements of spatial current distribution for the free-r unning made (similar to 100 Hz) showed spatial instabilities of the be am propagation. The effect of a dielectric channel used for the stabil ization of the beam propagation was studied, The beam interaction with metal targets was investigated, and a substantial part (about 50%) of the beam current was found to be reflected from the target inclined a t an angle of 30-60 degrees with respect to the beam asis.
