Abstract

A module that can accommodate seven magnetrons in a common vacuum vessel energized by a single pulsed power driver with a magnetic field provided by a single Helmholtz pair has been constructed. The goal of the program is to phase-lock the magnetrons producing up to 10 GW of coherent radiation at 2. 8 GHz. This paper reports the initial operation of the module 4 magnetrons operating without the interconnection bridges that produce phase-locking have produced 100 to 200 MW in each of 12 powerextraction arms. 1.
