Design of the EU-1MW gyrotron for ITER
EU is developing a 1 MW cylindrical cavity gyrotron. In the last year the design of the components of the new gyrotron has been finalized while the technological design of the new tube has been defined. In the present paper, the main characteristics of the new EU gyrotron for ITER are presented.
Gyrotron interaction simulations with tapered magnetostatic field
We investigate the interaction of the electron beam with the RF wave in a gyrotron, in the presence of an axially tapered magnetic field. The simulation results of three interaction codes are compared and the different modelings are discussed.
