Abstract:

The preliminary electrical design was completed except for the helix to waveguide transitions. The PPM focusing stack was designed, fabricated and measured. A beam tester was constructed, exhausted, cathodeprocessed and made ready for test. Studies of efficiency improvement were made using a velocity taper for the helix slow wave structure. Author
