Electron Beam Misalignment Study of MIG for 42 GHz, 200 kW Gyrotron

Abstract

This paper presents the electron beam misalignment study with respect to cathode position and cathode magnetic field of 42 GHz, 200 kW gyrotron. The performance of gyrotron is affected with the misalignment of cathode position. The simulation results confirm the tolerance of cathode misalignment with respect to the design parameters such as the transverse-To-Axial velocity ratio, the maximum transverse velocity spread, etc. © 2017 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston 2017.
