Analysis of the beam-lamination effect in high-gain and low-gain TWTs
Abstract
The beam-lamination effect in TWTs is analyzed in the case of one-dimensional charge motion with allowance for dynamic defocusing. It is shown that, for powerful Coulomb forces and rigid beam focusing, the lamination reduces the efficiency of multisectional tubes, while dynamic defocusing improves the efficiency and can neutralize the lamination effect.
