Abstract :
The 5045 klystron has been in production and accelerating particles at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory for over 25 years [1]. Although the design has undergone some changes there are still significant opportunities for improvement in performance. Retrofitting the 5045 for higher efficiencies and a more mono-energetic spent beam profile is presented.
