The manuscript reports the simulation of an electron gun with a view to optimizing the design of radio-frequency sources. The effects of eight parameters on the beam quality were studied and optimal choices were identified. It gives numerical beam qualities in common electrostatic triode gun,...

The importance of reducing building energy usage and thriving for more energy efficient architectures, has nurtured creative solutions and smart choices of materials in the last few decades. Among those are optimizing surface optical properties for both interior and exterior claddings of the...
