Abstract :
A klystron-driven resonant ring has been designed and assembled at the Los Alamos National Laboratory for use in the Accelerator Production of Tritium Project (APT). The ring was built to test RF windows for the 700 MHz section of the APT accelerator. The ring has been designed to apply an effective power of approximately 1 MW on test windows. Details of ring design, operation and performance are presented
