Abstract :
This paper presents the recent development of telegraphist´s equation solution for linear beam amplifier (TESLA) model which allows for accurate simulations of klystrons with multigap resonators. The new model based on local representation of electromagnetic fields as modes of coupled partial single gap resonators allows for accurate simulations of EM field modification due to the electron beam loading. The coupled cavity TESLA model shows good agreement with measurements of the NRL S-band multiple beam klystron with multiple gap cavities.
