Design and computer simulation of a gyrotwystron

High power operation of anX-band gyrotwistron

“…It was examined theoretically in the 1970s [14,15] for weakly relativistic electron beams, and recent work has extended the modeling to the relativistic case [16,17] and to the design of an experimentally feasible, weakly relativistic tube [18]. However, to our knowledge, until now there have been no experimental results.…”
