Abstract

The cathode attachment of a high-current vacuum arc on the fall of a current pulse was studied. Contacts generating an axial magnetic field were used. The revealed transformation of the attachment shape near zero current was explained quantitatively in a way that was in satisfactory agreement with experimental results.
