Abstract :
Amplitude modulation of the 50 Hz AC sweeping current of transversal sweeping systems reduces the maximum averaged power density on the collector wall as compared to an unmodulated system. This makes transversal sweeping a very attractive alternative to conventional longitudinal sweeping systems for high power CW Gyrotrons.
