Theoretical analysis of a relativistic travelling wave tube filled with plasma

A cold and uniform plasma-filled travelling wave tube with sinusoidally corrugated slow wave structure is driven by a finite thick annular intense relativistic electron beam with the entire system immersed in a strong longitudinal magnetic field. By means of the linear field theory, the dispersion relation for the relativistic travelling wave tube (RTWT) is derived. By numerical computation, the dispersion characteristics of the RTWT are analysed in different cases of various geometric parameters of the slow wave structure and plasma densities. Also the gain versus frequency for three different plasma densities and the peak gain of the tube versus plasma density are analysed. Some useful results are obtained on the basis of the discussion.     

High-power, kilojoule class laser channeling in millimeter-scale underdense plasma

Experiments were performed using the Omega EP laser, operating at 740 J of energy in 8 ps (90 TW), which provides extreme conditions relevant to fast ignition studies. A carbon and hydrogen plasma plume was used as the underdense target and the interaction of the laser pulse propagating and channeling through the plasma was imaged using proton radiography. The early time expansion, channel evolution, filamentation, and self-correction of the channel was measured on a single shot via this method. A channel wall modulation was observed and attributed to surface waves. After around 50 ps, the channel had evolved to show bubblelike structures, which may be due to postsoliton remnants.

High-power microwave-induced TM01 plasma ring

Open-shutter photography was used to capture the air breakdown pattern induced by a TM₀₁ mode radiated by a high-power backward wave oscillator. The resultant plasma ring was formed in air adjacent to a conical horn antenna fitted with a membrane to keep the experiment under vacuum. This image was digitized and further processed using Khoros 2.0 software to obtain the dimensions of the plasma ring. This information was used in an air breakdown analysis to estimate the radiated power, and agrees within 10% with the power measured using field mapping with an open-ended WR-90 waveguide     

High-power discharge with a plasma cathode in dense gases

An attempt is made to create an electric-discharge source for pumping argon, krypton, and xenon dimer lasers. The device is based on a method proposed previously by the authors, wherein confinement of the discharge is achieved by removing the cathode spot from the main discharge region and closing the discharge to the spot along a narrow extended auxiliary plasma channel. The conditions for the formation of such a discharge are investigated. The high stability of the sparkless stage of the discharge permits the first-ever attainment of energy depositions at the level of 100 J/cm² at pressures ∼10 atm, a level several orders of magnitude higher than is attainable by conventional methods. A discharge cell and power supply system are designed for a multisectional discharge with an active length of 200 mm, and the reliability of the entire apparatus is demonstrated in long-term use. Zh.

High-power TM_(01) millimeter wave pulse sensor in circular waveguide

By investigating the interaction of an n-type silicon sample with the TM01 mode millimeter wave in a circular waveguide, a viable high-power TM01 millimeter wave sensor is proposed. Based on the hot electron effect, the silicon sample serving as a sensing element(SE) and appropriately mounted on the inner wall of the circular waveguide is devoted to the on-line measurement of a high-power millimeter wave pulse. A three-dimensional parallel finite-difference time-domain method is applied to simulate the wave propagation within the measuring structure. The transverse electric field distribution, the dependences of the frequency response of the voltage standing-wave ratio(VSWR) in the circular waveguide, and the average electric field amplitude within the SE on the electrophysical parameters of the SE are calculated and analyzed in the frequency range of 300–400 GHz. As a result, the optimal dimensions and specific resistance of the SE are obtained,which provide a VSWR of no more than 2.0, a relative sensitivity around 0.0046 kW-1 fluctuating within ±17.3%, and a maximum enduring power of about 4.3 MW.

Low group velocity traveling wave tube amplifiers

We report experimental and theoretical results from research into high power X-band traveling wave tube amplifiers designed to eliminate sidebands caused by reflections from the output of such structures. These amplifiers have a low energy velocity, such that the time it takes a wave to be reflected from the output to the input is of the order of, or greater than, the electron beam pulse duration. The elimination of sidebands and the effects of reflections is achieved by this transit time isolation, The bandwidth of the output spectrum is limited by the low pass-band of the periodic structures. Such amplifiers have been operated at power levels of up to 160 MW at 9 GHz for 50 ns pulse durations

Nonlinear rotary wave ion plasma

The nonlinearly coupled Vlasov-Maxwell ion-plasma field equations are solved exactly for a transversely uniform subgroup of rotational modes induced by a uniform axial magnetic field. The ion orbits in momentum space are bipolar doubly periodic eigenfunctions of ion proper time, obtained in closed form as the difference between two doubly quasi-periodic Weierstrass zeta functions. The ion orbits in position space are helical-spiral doubly quasi-periodic functions of ion proper time, expressible simply in terms of doubly quasi-periodic Weierstrass sigma functions. The complete ion distributions are flexible functions of six constants of the ion motion: wave-frame ion energy, transverse gyro center, an inner Hamiltonian correlating wave-frame ion momentum with wave-frame axial position, and both first and second axial integration constants. A rotary electromagnetic plane wave propagates along the axial magnetic field with complex cisoidal dependence upon wave-frame axial position. The eigenvalue determination intricately interrelates the wave propagation vector, the wave amplitude, the axial magnetic field, the double periods, and the bipole separation.
