The study provides a comparative analysis of some approximate and exact solutions for a modified forming electrode in a Pierce gun with a thermal gap. Using numerical simulation, the degree of equivalence of different solutions is shown from the point of view of practical implementation and beam quality. Finally, a specific shape of the modified Pierce electrode is presented, taking into account realistic constraints on the design freedom.
