Download or read book Influence of Emitter Surface Roughness and Emission Inhomogeneity on Efficiency and Stability of High Power Fusion Gyrotrons written by Zhang, Jianghua and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing demand for powerful, reliable, and efficient gyrotron oscillators for Electron Cyclotron Resonance Heating (ECRH) in fusion plasma experiments requires a close look at the various factors in gyrotrons that determine gyrotron performance. In this frame, the influence of emitter surface roughness, emission inhomogeneity, and secondary electron generation on gyrotron operation is presented, with focus on Low Frequency Oscillations (LFOs) and Electron Beam Halo (EBH) generation.
