Development of a 402.5 MHz 140 kW Inductive Output Tube

Abstract

This paper describes a 402.5 MHz 140 kW Inductive Output Tube (IOT) that is being developed for use in proton accelerators. New, more efficient, computer codes will be used to simulate the time dependent behavior of the IOT. The principal components of the device, including the RF structure, electron gun, and magnetics are described.
