Abstract :
A six cavity, 1¿ MW, 805 MHz klystron for the Los Alamos Meson Physics Facility (LAMPF) has been designed at Los Alamos and fabricated at Litton Industries. The design requirements were all exceeded by the experimental tube and a maximum dc to rf conversion efficiency of 57.4% was measured. The design and performance of the klystron is discussed in this paper.
