Abstract

Analytical estimations and the results of numerical analysis of the electron beam parameters in the reverse moderate power (15 kV/1A) Magnetron Injection Gun (MIG) for a coaxial 394.6 GHz gyrotron are presented. The design of the MIG with a movable inner rod is discussed, and the influence of emitter roughness is analyzed.
