Abstract
This article presents time-dependent numerical modeling of V-band relativistic orotron: a high-power microwave generator with a TM03 oscillation mode in an oversized (D/λ ∼ 2.7) electrodynamic structure and diffractive output in the TM02 mode. Single-mode operation of the oscillator is ensured by the cyclotron selection of the working axisymmetric mode, with simultaneous depression of competing non-axisymmetric modes by means of cutting longitudinal slits in the wall of the slow-wave structure. The simulated output microwave power is 350 MW with a power conversion efficiency of 31% when using a 3.6 kA, 310 keV electron beam transported in the 3.9 T magnetic field. The simulation employed 2.5D axisymmetric and 3D Cartesian versions of the KARAT code.
