High-energy electron-beam deposition onto a hot graphite surface.
The momentum transfer and blow-off vapor yield resulting from the deposition of a pulsed high-power electron beam onto a plane graphite target with surface temperatures of 300 K and 5000 K are examined experimentally. The results show that with identical electron beams the momentum transfer and vapor yield are between two and three times larger when irradiating the 5000 K surface as compared with the 300 K surface.
