Abstract :
Large signal bunching processes in the presence of space charge are studied by extending techniques used to compute multi-cavity klystron bunching. Bunching capability of traveling-wave and standing-wave systems is examined by using an assumed spatial and time distribution of electric field, and interesting high degrees of bunching are predicted.
