Perhaps so, but if they can accelerate to a certain speed in the half
inch or so between cathode and anode, why could they not decelerate an
equal amount a half inch after passing the anode? They would be
stopped in mid-space and immediately return to the anode like good
little electrons should. :-)
The evidence is that they strike glass, causing it ti fluoresce. I've seen 4-1000As with glass that turned pale brown where electrons had been banging it.
Or maybe the glass is too close to the anode so there is no time for
reversal before impacting the glass?
