  • Abstract
    Communications and Power Industries (CPI) is currently developing megawatt-class gyrotrons for fusion plasma heating and current drive across a range of frequencies, for use at several different fusion research facilities. These gyrotrons are currently at different stages of development, fabrication, and test. Design features will be compared, available test data will be presented, and future plans will be described.
