The possibility of variation of the fraction of the energetic electron component in a magnetically confined diffusion argon plasma with a bi-Maxwellian electron energy distribution function (EEDF) created in the target part of a double plasma device by changing the anode voltage is demonstrated. The growth of fraction of the energetic electrons with a decrease of the anode voltage while the separation grid potential is kept constant is observed. An analysis of the loss rates of cold and hot electrons is given. Mechanisms of the formation of the bi-Maxwellian EEDF in the magnetically confined diffusion plasma are discussed.
