The results of computer modeling of electron motion in orbitron vacuum sensor are shown. It is shown that in an idealized structure without the potential well of the cathode an electron passes iteratively on a spiral path between the ends of cylindrical electrodes. It is found that the spiral step decreases with increasing particle axial coordinate starting points and return to the starting point is moved azimuthally over time, because the length of the electrodes is not usually an integer number of turns of the helix. The aim of the work is obtaining quantitative motion characteristics of electrons in a vacuum orbitron sensor for different parameters of electrode system with the help of modern computing facilities.
Key words: orbitron vacuum sensor, сomputer modeling, motion of electrons.
