High Voltage K sub a -Band Gyrotron Experiment.

Abstract

A new high voltage, intense beam Ka band gyrotron experiment is underway, using a 350-400 keV, 0.5-1 kA beam from a short-pulse Febetron pulser. High power operation at 35 GHz has been observed, with 20 MW (+ or - 3 dB) produced at about 8.5% efficiency in a whispering-gallery TE62 mode. Operation in other modes, and at other frequencies has also been studied. Keywords: High voltage; Ka band; Gyrotron; Experiment; Intense; Beam; Cyclotron resonance maser.
