Abstract :
Computer codes have been developed for analysis and optimization of QO launchers used in high power gyrotrons. Launchers designed using the codes have been shown to have higher Gaussian content and lower diffraction losses than any launchers developed to date. The codes have graphical user interfaces to enable easy operation.
