ATOMIC OSCILLATOR DEVICE FOR NAVIGATION GUIDANCE.

Abstract

Design features of the first prototype Cesium Beam Tubes were finalized. The design includes a hexapole optics systems, an annular ionizer, coaxial microwave cavity, and solenoidal C-field. Breadboard primary loops were constructed using BLR-2 Beam Tubes. Stable closed loop with gain of 20 x 10 to the 6th power was tested. Spectral purity and quadrature effect were investigated.
