Abstract :
New results of experimental tests of the Yale/Omega-P Ka-band magnicon are presented. The main goal is to achieve stable and repeatable operation necessary for operation of a high-power accelerator test facility. In order to direct the beam along the tube axis, steering coils were installed between the gun and the RF system, thereby allowing an increase in pulse width and achievement of good stability and repeatability of the output signal. The test facility is briefly described.
