This work presents a fully kinetic description to model the electron flow in the electronic crossed-field configuration observed in a smooth-bore magnetron. Through this model, it has been observed that, according to the electromagnetic field, the injection temperature and the charge density, the electron flow can be classified in two different stationary modes: magnetic insulation mode where most of the electrons returning to the cathode after a transient time and Child-Langmuir mode where most of the electrons reach the anode after a transient time. Focusing on magnetic insulated mode, it has been found that charge density and injection temperature define whether electrons are accelerated (accelerating regime) or decelerated (space-charge limited regime) on the cathode. Besides, when the injection temperature is relatively low (high), a small charge increase causes (does not cause) an abrupt transition between accelerating and space-charge limited regime. Basing on the results, it was possible to identify a critical temperature that separates abrupt and continuous behavior. The results have been verified by using self-consistent computer simulations.
