Abstract :
We investigate, by numerical simulations, the effects of a misaligned (i.e. shifted with respect to the resonator axis) electron beam on the beam-wave interaction in a 170 GHz, 2 MW coaxial gyrotron. The correlation of the simulations results with the experimental findings, which motivated the present study, is discussed.
