High power testing of a fully axisymmetric rf gun

Advanced energy systems (AES) has developed a fully axisymmetric radiofrequency electron gun with an upstream power feed. High power RE testing has been performed on this novel structure at a frequency of 11.43 GHz using the magnicon facility at the naval research laboratory (NRL). The successful te...

Summary:Advanced energy systems (AES) has developed a fully axisymmetric radiofrequency electron gun with an upstream power feed. High power RE testing has been performed on this novel structure at a frequency of 11.43 GHz using the magnicon facility at the naval research laboratory (NRL). The successful testing proved out the basic design features of the gun. The overall design of the gun is discussed along with the results of the high power RF testing.
