Book Description
Dynamic after-cavity interaction (ACI) in megawatt-class gyrotrons is investigated that could lead to lower output mode purity and increased level of internal stray radiation. The self-consistent KIT-IHM multi-mode-code SELFT has been modified to extend the simulation domain into the radius up-taper section of the gyrotron cavity where the probability of ACI exists. Studies on four different gyrotron configurations confirm that undesired interactions in the up-taper region can result in additional parasitic oscillations with relative power in the 1%-range.

New Type of sub-THz Oscillator and Amplifier Systems Based on Helical-Type Gyro-TWTs
Author: Marek, Alexander
Publisher: KIT Scientific Publishing
ISBN: 3731512505
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
This work presents the development of a new sub-THz source for the generation of trains of coherent high-power ultra-short pulses at 263 GHz via passive mode-locking of two coupled helical gyro-TWTs. For the first time, it is shown that the operation of such passive mode-locked helical gyro-TWTs in the hard excitation regime is of particular importance to reach the optimal coherency of the generated pulses. This could be of particular interest for some new time-domain DNP-NMR methods.

Temperature- and Time-Dependent Dielectric Measurements and Modelling on Curing of Polymer Composites
Author: Prastiyanto, Dhidik
Publisher: KIT Scientific Publishing
ISBN: 3731504243
Category : Dielectric measurements
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
In this book a test set for dielectric measurements at 2.45 GHz during curing of polymer composites is developed. Fast reconstruction is solved using a neural network algorithm. Modeling of the curing process at 2.45 GHz using both dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor results in more accurate model compared to low frequency modelling that only uses the loss factor. Effect of various hardeners and different amount of filler is investigated.

Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
The subject of this work is the design, implementation and first results of the "CERN Resonant WISP Search" (CROWS), which probes the existence of Axion Like Particles and Hidden Sector Photons (HSPs) using microwave techniques. By exploiting low loss cavity resonators, multiple layers of electromagnetic shielding and a micro-Hz bandwidth detection scheme, new exclusion limits could be set. For HSPs, sensitivity was improved by a factor of 7 compared to previous laboratory experiments.
