Abstract :
We have demonstrated through computer simulations using the fully relativistic, three-dimensional particle-in-cell code MAGIC that the relativistic magnetron is less susceptible to mode competition when the rise time of the drive voltage is less than the characteristic cavity fill-time of the magnetron.
