Abstract :
In this paper, confined flow multiple beam guns for high power RF applications is presented. Here, the challenge is to develop electron guns and the associated magnetic circuit to confine and compress the electron beams and transport them through the separate beam tunnels to the spent beam collector. A solid model of 185 kV multiple beam gun (MBG) for an X-band klystron is presented in this paper.
