Abstract:

This report contains the results of the testing of rebuilt Gyro-TWT. This rebuilt tube incorporates an extra length of interaction circuit. The rebuilt tube achieved a small signal gain of 17db and was prone to oscillations. The Gyro-TWT was rebuilt a second time and included, among other improvements, rf loss on the interaction circuit. The results of the initial cold test on this tube are included. Also included in this report are further calculations on TE Gyro-TWTs operating in the fundamental and the second harmonic using a small signal dispersion relation computer program.
