  • Abstract
    The design of a 1.0-1.3 MW, longpulse gyrotron operating at 127.5 GHz, for plasma start-up in the international thermonuclear fusion experiment (ITER) is presented. Cold cavity and self-consistent design calculations are used to compute power and efficiencies. Result indicates that an output power of over 1.3 MW can be achieved at 127.5 GHz with TE24,8 as the operating cavity mode.
