Abstract :
Comparison between predictions of the 2.5D large signal code TESLA and measured data for three different klystrons are presented. The klystrons cover an operating frequency range from P-band to X-band, micro-perveance between 1.1 to 2.0, parameter ga between 0.53 to 0.87 and efficiency between 43% to 62%. Two of the three devices are CPI legacy tubes that are solenoid-focused. Thousands of one type have been successfully built in CPI production lines over the last thirty years. The third device is a state-of-the-art PPM-focused klystron that was designed and manufactured recently.
