Abstract :
Recent commissioning of a 45-MW peak power 34.3 GHz magnicon amplifier makes possible, for the first time, high-power tests of components and structures for a possible future high-gradient millimeter-wave linear accelerator. A brief survey is presented of the status of this Ka-band magnicon and component development efforts now underway.
