摘要
A coupling impedance (Z(0) approximate to 9 Omega) between a relativistic electron beam and a fundamental harmonic of a TM01 wave slowed down to the speed of light in a circular corrugated waveguide is calculated. The geometry of a relativistic (approximate to 420 keV) traveling wave oscillator (TWO) with an operating frequency of 1.25 GHz is optimized using this calculations by the fully electromagnetic particle-in-cell (PIC) code KARAT. The transient time obtained in PIC simulations is approximate to 26 ns. A microwave power of 340 MW is also obtained in PIC simulations at an electron beam current of 3.0 kA in strong (approximate to 0.3 T) and weak (approximate to 0.08 T) guiding magnetic fields, which corresponds to the oscillator efficiency approximate to 27%.
