Abstract :
We are investigating the performances of a new tunable and low frequency (2-6 GHz band) Cerenkov Plasma Maser driven by a 600 kV, 100 nSec Tesla generator. We present experimental results in terms of energy and spectrum for the one-shoot mode and their comparison with 2D PIC simulations results versus voltage, plasma density and B field levels. The accelerator is presented in the first part of this document.
