Method for Measurement of Static Parameters of Axially Symmetric Beams in Devices of Millimeter Wave Band

The new method for metering of the static parameters of the axially symmetric electron beams in the devices of the extremely high frequency (EHF) range is proposed in the paper. The method is based on using properties of the transition radiation of the optical range. The transition radiation appears when bombarding a metallic target electrode with electrons. Results of the meterings on distribution of current beam density by way of this method are given. The results are compared with the trajectory analysis when moving the electrons in the field of the investigated electron-optical system.
