The mutual synchronization of coupled delayed feedback klystron oscillators

We report on the results of a numerical investigation of the synchronization of two coupled klystron oscillators with an external feedback circuit. Simulation has been carried out using the particle-in-cell method. We have also considered the results of a numerical analysis of an amplifier klystron and an isolated klystron oscillator, which make it possible to choose the optimal values of parameters of coupled klystrons. The structure of the synchronization domain for various parameters has been analyzed. The possibility of increasing the total output power with an appropriate choice of parameter of coupling between the oscillators has been revealed.     

An Axial Monotron with Rippled Wall Resonator

With application to centimeter-wave monotron oscillators, the present work proposes a rippled wall cylindrical cavity that provides efficient coupling to a coaxial output circuit. Driven by a centered, solid 50 A, 34 keV electron beam, the corrugated cavity thus designed operates at 10.5 GHz in the 2-mode with two radial variations. The monotron operation is examined through 2.5D particle-in-cell simulation giving 260 kW average power output. This corresponds to 15.3 percent overall efficiency at the theoretical limit of 20.0% percent electronic effciency as predicted by one-dimensional analysis.

Two-resonator CRM oscillator with external feedback

Conclusions The efficiency of a two-resonator CRM oscillator is greater than that of a CRM monotron. The maximum value of the transverse electron efficiency of a two-resonator CRM is 0,87 with hard self-excitation and 0,82 with soft self-exoitation.In two-resonator CRM oscillators we can employ shorter resonators with a lower Q, and hence operate under conditions with large currents and high output power level without a substantial loss of efficiency.Adjustable feedback makes it possible to vary CRM parameters over wide limits and to achieve, e.g., better mode selection or higher efficiencies.Institute of Applied Physics, Academy of Sciences of the USSR.

Experimental chaotic map generated by picosecond laser pulse-seeded electro-optic nonlinear delay dynamics

We describe experimental studies of the dynamical behavior of a recently proposed electro-optic discrete time nonlinear delay oscillator. With appropriate choice of the oscillator loop parameters and external forcing of the dynamics using a pulsed laser source, the system allows for the physical realization of a high dimensional mathematical nonlinear mapping. The dynamical features observed with this new class of discrete time delay oscillator differ significantly from those observed with similar continuous time nonlinear delay feedback oscillators and reveal the intrinsic discrete time nature of the dynamics. We also discuss specific applications to chaos communications using regularly clocked binary data.

Proposal for an x-ray free electron laser oscillator with intermediate energy electron beam

Harmonic lasing of low-gain free electron laser oscillators has been experimentally demonstrated in the terahertz and infrared regions. Recently, the low-gain oscillator has been reconsidered as a promising candidate for hard x-ray free electron lasers, through the use of high reflectivity, high-resolution x-ray crystals. In this Letter, it is proposed to utilize a crystal-based cavity resonant at a higher harmonic of the undulator radiation, together with phase shifting, to enable harmonic lasing of the x-ray free electron laser oscillator, and hence allow the generation of hard x-ray radiation at a reduced electron beam energy. Results show that fully coherent free electron laser radiation with megawatt peak power, in the spectral region of 10-25 keV, can be generated with a 3.5 GeV electron beam.     

Approach to the quantum evolution for underdamped, critically damped, and overdamped driven harmonic oscillators using unitary transformation

Exact solution of the Schrödinger equation is derived for underdamped, critically damped, and overdamped harmonic oscillators with a driving force. A unitary operator transforming Hamiltonian into a simple form is introduced. The transformed Hamiltonian, represented in terms of a modified frequency ω, is identical with the Hamiltonian of the standard harmonic oscillator for the underdamped oscillator, with the Hamiltonian of a free particle for the critically damped oscillator, and with the Hamiltonian of a system with a harmonic parabolic potential for the overdamped oscillator. The eigenvalues of underdamped oscillator are discrete while those of the critically damped and the overdamped oscillators are continuous.     

Mode control in a high-gain relativistic klystron amplifier

Middle cavities between the input and output cavity can be used to decrease the required input RF power for the relativistic klystron amplifier.Meanwhile higher modes,which affect the working mode,are also easy to excite in a device with more middle cavities.In order for the positive feedback process for higher modes to be excited,a special measure is taken to increase the threshold current for such modes.Higher modes' excitation will be avoided when the threshold current is significantly larger than the beam current.So a high-gain S-band relativistic klystron amplifier is designed for the beam of current 5 kA and beam voltage 600 kV.Particle in cell simulations show that the gain is 1.6×105 with the input RF power of 6.8 kW,and that the output RF power reaches 1.1 GW.

Abatement of thermal noise due to internal damping in 2D oscillators with rapidly rotating test masses

Mechanical oscillators can be sensitive to very small forces. Low frequency effects are up-converted to higher frequency by rotating the oscillator. We show that for 2-dimensional oscillators rotating at frequency much higher than the signal the thermal noise force due to internal losses and competing with it is abated as the square root of the rotation frequency. We also show that rotation at frequency much higher than the natural one is possible if the oscillator has 2 degrees of freedom, and describe how this property applies also to torsion balances. In addition, in the 2D oscillator the signal is up-converted above resonance without being attenuated as in the 1D case, thus relaxing requirements on the read out. This work indicates that proof masses weakly coupled in 2D and rapidly rotating can play a major role in very small force physics experiments.

Hidden symmetry in chains of biological coupled oscillators

We experimentally investigated spatiotemporal patterns in chains of coupled biological oscillators with boundaries and found hidden symmetric patterns that are not straightforwardly derived from explicit geometrical symmetry of the systems. We propose a model of coupled oscillators in chains with a hidden oscillator interconnecting its boundaries. The model can explain all observed patterns including the hidden symmetric ones, while other models such as discrete analogs of Neumann boundary conditions in continuous systems cannot.     

Experimental study of complex dynamics in a delayed-feedback multiple-cavity klystron self-oscillator

The main characteristics of a delayed-feedback multiple-cavity klystron oscillator with various oscillation modes (single-frequency oscillations, as well as regular and chaotic self-modulations) are studied experimentally. Maps of dynamic modes on the beam current-accelerating voltage plane are presented. Basic scenarios of transition to chaos are considered. As the beam current and amount of feedback increase, regular and chaotic oscillation modes are found to alternate in a complex manner. It is shown that one can significantly increase the power of chaotic oscillations by appropriately tuning the control parameters.

Construction of the Phasing System for BEPCⅡ Linac

In order to get high beam quality, a RF distribution system is required, with minimal phase drifts and errors in the BEPCⅡ linac. The additional installation of phase reference cables and monitoring equipments and stable RF distribution for BEPC linac are finished. The master oscillator is chosen to offer RF signal with low phase noise and a stable phase distribution system is built to deliver RF signal to each klystron. A phase and amplitude detector is constructed to measure the phase precisely and an IΦA unit is used for a phase shifter. Control software based on EPICS is used to connect all the units of the system, and a phasing method based on BPM is adopted to optimize the phase of each klystron. Now the phasing system is installed and tested in the klystron gallery of the BEPCⅡ linac.
