Abstract :
The Recirculating Planar Magnetron (RPM) is a crossed-field device which presents numerous advantages in generating HPM. A 12-cavity, conventional-polarity, 1GHz model was designed and tested at a -300 kV, 0.3-0.5 microsecond pulselength and a 0.3 T axial magnetic field. The initial design and experimental results are discussed.
