Phase-locking simulation of dual magnetrons

Summary form only given. The analysis of phase-locking of dual magnetrons is underway by means of direct particle simulation of two coupled magnetrons. The computer code allows two magnetrons to run side by side without any crosstalk other than being coupled through a transmission line. The phase evolution can be simulated with two magnetrons connected by a transmission line with various lengths and impedances. The Physics International magnetron geometry configuration was used. and the preliminary results demonstrate that a half-integral wavelength connector produced 180° out-of-phase operation. The phase-locking time can be observed easily from the phase evolution of two magnetrons
