Abstract
The dimensions of the resonant cavities of the multiple-beam klystron are determined in such a way as to enable functioning in the TM.sub.0n mode (n=a whole number greater than 1) and drift tubes relative to the beams go through the klystron cavities at places where the electrical field, in the cavities, is at its maximum value. This embodiment results in high-powered klystrons capable at working at high frequencies.
Claims2
A multiple-beam klystron comprising several resonant cavities, with drift tubes in which the dimensions of the cavities are set in such a way that the klystron works optimally in the mode TM.sub.0n (n being a whole number greater than 1), a klystron in which the drift tubes cross the cavities, passing through a region where, even in the absence of these tubes, the electrical field would have an absolute maximum limit.
