Abstract :
A 100 MW first harmonic gyroklystron is currently being implemented on the newly upgraded test bed at the University of Maryland. This initial experiment will serve as a diagnostic and precursor to the second harmonic systems that are in the designing stages. This paper details the specifics of the first and second harmonic two-cavity tube designs. Comparisons of two-cavity and three-cavity designs are also presented
