Abstract :
A highly parallelized 3D code, based on the Particle-In-Cell approach is used for self-consistent simulations of highly energetic microwave sources (gyrotron resonator and launcher) for fusion plasma heating. We present results for some isolated components of TE0, 3 and the TE22, 6 gyrotron.
