Modeling of parasitic oscillations in smooth-wall circular symmetric dielectric-loaded gyrotron beam ducts

Stefano Alberti, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Jérémy Genoud

The self-consistent simulation of the electron beam interaction was performed in the presence of a lossy dielectric layer in the smooth-wall beam duct of a gyrotron oscillator. For this purpose, the linear and spectral code TWANGlinspec was extended. In th ...

Parasitic Oscillations in Smooth-Wall Circular Symmetric Gyrotron Beam Ducts

Stefano Alberti, Minh Quang Tran, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Jérémy Genoud, Trach-Minh Tran, Konstantinos Avramidis

In order to study parasitic oscillation that may occur in a realistic beam duct upstream to the gyrotron cavity, the self-consistent linear and spectral code TWANGlinspec has been modified. The large inhomogeneities in the smooth-wall beam duct geometry or ...
