Abstract	We report the results of atomic-force microscopy studies of the surface of samples of the protective coating of spacecraft solar cells made of K-208-glass irradiated with 20- and 40-keV electrons at a flux density of φ$_{e}$ = 10$^{10}$−5 × 10$^{11}$ cm$^{−2}$ s$^{−1}$ and a residual pressure of 10$^{−4}$ Pa in the vacuum chamber. The traces of electrostatic discharges that occur at different irradiation intensities are analyzed. It is established that at φ$_{e}$ < 5 × 10$^{10}$ cm$^{−2}$ s$^{−1}$ discharges of the type glass-surrounding ionized gas are dominant, which lead to the formation of microprotrusions on the irradiated surface in the regions of plasma ejection, while at φ$_{e}$ > 2.0 × 10$^{11}$ cm$^{−2}$ s$^{−1}$ discharges flowing mainly along the sample surface prevail.
