Simulations and components for novel fast wave microwave amplifiers and sources

A three dimensional parameterised model of an X-band 2nd harmonic gyro-travelling wave amplifier (gyro-TWA) with a helically corrugated interaction region has been created and optimised in the Particle-in-Cell code MAGIC-3D, to achieve an output power and saturated efficiency of ~1.0MW and ~27% resp...
