Measurements of electron beam deflection and rf breakdown rate from a surface wave guided in metallic mm-wave accelerating structures

Experiments with high gradient traveling-wave mm-wave metallic accelerating structures were performed to research the physics of vacuum rf breakdowns. The accelerating structures are open, composed of two identical halves separated by an adjustable gap. The electromagnetic fields were induced by an...
