  • Abstract
    The custom-modified experimental test of the TWT will allow for experimental determination and verification of currently-unavailable multitone wave spectra details and beam-phase space evolution. The collected experimental data will indicate opportunities for TWT modifications that will improve tube linearity, efficiency, and evaluate the accuracy of several numerical tools.
