MULTIMEGAWATT BROADBAND MICROWAVE TUBES

Abstract

Current work being accomplished is reviewed. Included topics are listed below: (I) Centipede TWT - Current results of theory and experiment are presented. (II) Periodic circuit studies - (a) Modifications of existing circuits and new circuits for high power TWT's for improvement of bandwidth, impedance, and stability are investigated. (b) Evaluation of an unshielded periodic array of small dielectric resonators as a positivedispersion slow wave structure providing an axial H-field is presented. (III) Oscillation suppression in TWT's - An abstract from a report on TWT oscillation suppression (pulse edge) by means of coupling to an external lossless waveguide is given. (IV) Extended interaction klystrons - Assembly of an experimental three-cavity tube has been completed. (V) Transverse wave studies - Investigation of transverse wave propagation on an accelerated stream is continuing. (VI) nonperiodic dielectric traveling wave tubes - This work has been discontinued. A statement of recommendations is contained herein.
