Cooling electrodes

[Engineer]

I’m wondering how the beryllium electrode will be cooled for more continuous operation. Will thermoelectric cooling help? In this scheme, I assume the heat would be carried away by the thermoelectric cooler between electron injection pulses.

I think some type of highly conductive material that radiates heat quickly might help solve that problem. Maybe graphene or carbon nanotubes.
How hot do those electrodes get?

Check the link above. There has been a lot of discussion about this topic.
