Cusp Guns for Helical-Waveguide Gyro-TWTs of a High-Gain High-Power W-Band Amplifier Cascade
The evaluation, design, and simulations of two different electron guns generating the beams for W-band second cyclotron harmonic gyro-TWTs forming a high-gain powerful amplifier cascade are presented. The optimum configurations of the systems creating nearly axis-encircling electron beams having vel...

Summary: | The evaluation, design, and simulations of two different electron guns generating the beams for W-band second cyclotron harmonic gyro-TWTs forming a high-gain powerful amplifier cascade are presented. The optimum configurations of the systems creating nearly axis-encircling electron beams having velocity pitch-factor up to 1.5, voltage/current of 40 kV/0.5 A, and 100 kV/13 A with acceptable velocity spreads have been found and are presented. |
