Abstract :
To eliminate the problem of non-uniform azimuthal current density experienced by some temperature-limited (TL) MIGs, we designed a number of SCL MIGs for gyro-devices with accelerator and fusion applications. We present the simulated capabilities of guns with and without control grids and compare these SCL guns to comparable TL MIGs.
