  • Abstract
    This paper documents the repair and reconditioning of an ITT 2960 klystron that had been at atmospheric pressure for eight months due to a leak in the compression seal for the waveguide window. All work was done in the Duke FEL Vacuum Shop by laboratory staff without any external purchases. The reconditioned klystron is currently being operated at full power on the injection linac for the electron storage ring at Duke
