Abstract
The SLAC XL5 klystron, which produces 50 MW at 12 GHz, is being used in several high gradient accelerators and test stands. The design has been transferred to industry and is currently being modified for ease of assembly and for cost reduction. Two klystrons of the new design will be manufactured and fully characterized.
