Radial Beam TWT Electron Beam Analysis.

Abstract

This study developed practical designs for prototype versions of an electromagnetic focusing structure and a radial beam traveling-wave tube electron gun. Computer simulations were used to develop both the electromagnetic focusing structure design and the electron gun design. A final design with a well focused beam has been recommended and an experimental tube for operation in the frequency range 500-1000 MHz has been built. The limited contract period did not allow time to carry out a successful experiment. (Author)
