Particle in cell simulation for the power enhancement by forming the second virtual cathode in an axial vircator

A floating zone plate (ZP) was installed in the axial vircator for the formation of VC2 by using the wall charge of drifting electrons. The material of the opaque zones was changed to aluminum, copper, and glass to observe the effects. The main frequency of the microwave increased when VC2 is formed...
