  • Abstract
    This paper presents the design feasibility of a 1 MW, CW, 204 GHz conventional cavity gyrotron, for probable plasma heating application in future thermonuclear fusion reactors (DEMO like machines). A careful study of the mode selection process followed by the resonator design, and RF behavior studies will be presented in this paper.
