  • Abstract
    Design improvements and fabrication of a 10 MW, 1.3 GHz Annular Beam Klystron are described. The principal improvement is the electron gun. Utilization of a Controlled Porosity Reservoir (CPR) cathode allows the use of a zero-compression gun, resulting in improved beam quality and reductions in the gun and solenoid diameters.
