Abstract :
An analysis of azimuthally varying TE modes shows that the linear gain of the gyrotron amplifier is maximum for the fundamental TE mode operating at the fundamental cyclotron harmonic. In general, highest power at reduced magnetic fields will be achieved when the azimuthal mode number is the same as the cyclotron harmonic number.
