Advanced design of re-entrant beam distributed-emission crossed-field tubes

Abstract

The computed and measured results for re-entrant beam, distributed emission, crossed-field tubes are presented. The computer modelling is carried out by a particle-in-cell method (PIC method) in quasi-periodic, single-mode and non-relativistic approximations. The PIC method provides an accurate means to accomplish the computer modelling of classical continuous-wave magnetron generators including the low-voltage magnetron as well as the millimeter wave magnetron. The 3D self-consistent mathematical model of the non-traditional magnetron generator (combined magnetron) is considered.
