Download or read book Investigations of After Cavity Interaction in Gyrotrons Including the Effect of Non uniform Magnetic Field written by Roy Choudhury, Amitavo and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02-05 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamic after-cavity interaction (ACI) in megawatt-class gyrotrons is investigated that could lead to lower output mode purity and increased level of internal stray radiation. The self-consistent KIT-IHM multi-mode-code SELFT has been modified to extend the simulation domain into the radius up-taper section of the gyrotron cavity where the probability of ACI exists. Studies on four different gyrotron configurations confirm that undesired interactions in the up-taper region can result in additional parasitic oscillations with relative power in the 1%-range.
