Design of Biasing Magnets for E-F and I-J Band Cross-Field Amplifier Tubes.

Abstract

Design calculations are made for two alternative magnetic circuits to determine their relative suitability as field sources for an E-F band cross-field amplifier. One of the designs is found to marginally meet field requirements while the other falls short by about 10%. Similar calculations for a third configuration to be used in an I-J band amplifier also show marginal performance even if the best commercially available samarium cobalt-5 magnets are to be employed. An enhancement of magnetic remanence of 25% above those of presently available materials is necessary to make these designs practicable.
