Abstract :
Efforts are continuing to improve the quality of controlled porosity reservoir cathodes and measure performance. CPR cathodes are being incorporated into several new configurations, including a magnetron injection gun, 15-beam klystron, 18-beam klystron, and a 10 MW, annular beam klystron. Improved computational tools assist users in CPR cathode design and new equipment is available for cathode manufacture.
