Radiation sources at electron cyclotron harmonic frequencies
Abstract
This work covers an initial investigation of gyrotron devices operating in cylindrical geometry. Specific topics include an analysis of oscillations in a gyrotron travelling wave amplifier, the study of the effects of velocity spread and wall resistivity on gain and bandwidth in a gyrotron travelling wave amplifier, an investigation of mode competition in a cylindrical gyrotron cavity, and finally, a numerical cold testing of cavity modes in cylindrical structures.
