Enhancement of an electron beam buncher for a CW FEM

We present the design, construction and experimental results of an X-band waveguide electron beam buncher. The effect of the voltages across the buncher on the output power is reported.

Description
Summary:We present the design, construction and experimental results of an X-band waveguide electron beam buncher. The effect of the voltages across the buncher on the output power is reported. The electron beam used in this experiment is produced by thermonic electron gun which was successfully operated up to 60 kV and 5 mA. The nominal beam diameter was 1 mm passing through an X-band cavity resonator and guided by magnetic field of 170 G.
