Abstract :
Results from numerical simulations have demonstrated the principle of a co-harmonic gyrotron, operating with a novel cavity. Such a cavity is capable of generating coherent radiation at both the 2nd and 4th harmonics of the electron cyclotron frequency simultaneously, at frequencies of 37.5 GHz and 75 GHz. Further results are presented here, including refinements to the output section of the cavity.
