Abstract

During last year several new gyrotrons were designed and tested by Russian gyrotron team. Main efforts were spent for elaboration of 170 GHz/1 MW/50%/CW gyrotron for ITER project and multi-frequency gyrotrons. The paper presents new results in development of gyrotrons for ITER. The industrial production prototype of the ITER gyrotron was tested at the new test stand in Kurchatov institute with power 1.02 MW in 200 second pulses, and 0.6 MW in 800 second pulses. Simultaneously a short pulse gyrotron mock-up with an increased size cavity was tested at power 1.5-2 MW aiming development of ITER gyrotron with the enhanced power.
