Formation of ultrashort microwave pulses in coaxial cavities

We describe shaper cavities for the production of ultrashort microwave pulses with a minimum duration of one period of the high-frequency field and a power of several tens of megawatts. Experimental results are presented.Scientific and Research Insititute for Nuclear Physics at S. M. Kirov Polytechnical Institute, Tomsk.
