Abstract
The design of a particular gyrotron always involves tradeoffs among a number of mutually incompatible design goals and constraints (of both physical and technological nature). Design specifications and goals will become more stringent if one wishes to work at elevated frequencies, higher power levels from long-pulse to CW operation, and with higher cyclotron harmonics (s > 1). The general design constraints for high power gyrotrons are shown in Table 5.1.
