Higher harmonics in the output spectrum of a generator with turbulent electron beam

Аннотация

Formation of electron bunches in turbulent electron beams is numerically simulated and experimentally studied. A prototype of a laboratory generator is proposed, and control parameters (in particular, electron spread with respect to longitudinal velocities and additional deceleration of electron beam by electrostatic field of collector) that affect the characteristics of electron bunches and provide an increase in the number and amplitude of higher harmonics in the output spectrum are determined.
