Description
Summary:The magnetically insulated line oscillator (MILO) is a compact, high power microwave source which operates in a crossed-field configuration via a self-generated azimuthal magnetic field. Capable of producing multi-GW output, MILOs are among the most powerful high power microwave sources, but typically suffer from low (< 10\%) efficiency and require very high drive current (50-100 kA) [1].
