Abstract:

Research was initiated to demonstrate the feasibility of developing a backward-wave oscillator capable of generating 100 kw peak power and 1000 watts average power at 100 kmc. The tube will operate at 200 kv with a beam current of 10 amperes. A disc-loaded waveguide circuit will be used. A beam tester was nearly completed and a disc-loaded waveguide circuit was designed and tested. An electromagnet was also constructed. Author
