Nonlinear oscillations may occur in a plasma diode when the ions are reflected from a potential barrier. It was found that long-lived ions are formed in the course of the oscillations of the potential. Based on the proposed analytical model of the oscillations of the potential the reason for the appearance of long-lived ions is elucidated and the main features of their distribution function are revealed. The analytical results are in good agreement with the results of simulation.
