Ion Drainage in High Power Klystrons

Abstract

This experimental Ph.D thesis measures ion current in a high power klystron. The ion current is collected through a small hole in the cathode. Both oscilliatory & steady state ion current is measured and results in steady state are compared with applicable theory.
