Paper Abstract
The generation of large amplitude, monochromatic current modulation of an intense relativistic electron beam (500 keV, 16 KA) by an external microwave source through a series of cavities has been studied via particle simulation. In the case of two cavity geometry, the nonlinear interaction of the second cavity with the partially modulated beam driven by various strengths of external rf source has been investigated. Various geometric configurations for cavity and gap size and cavity separation have been studied to assess feasibility and prioritized configurations for the efficient operation of relativistic klystron amplifier. A three cavity RKA was proposed for the future extra-high power microwave generation.
