Abstract Plasma initiation in mid-sized tokamaks, especially superconducting machines, requires a pre-ionization source having an electron density on the order of 1017–1018 m−3 that typically operates in the pressure range between 10−5 and 10−4 mbar. A spiral antenna excited by 13.56 MHz …

A detailed characterization of RF–plasma discharge in the multi-cusp plasma device (MPD) having a multi-dipole line cusp magnetic field (MMF:$B_{0}$) has been experimentally demonstrated using the externally employed four turns high power spiral antenna. The experimentally measured input impedance ($\sim $0.37 +$\text{j}80\,\Omega$) …

An S-band high power relativistic backward wave oscillator using a trapezoidal resonant reflector and overmoded slow-wave structure is demonstrated by finite difference time domain based Particle-In-Cell code. The trapezoidal resonant reflector and slow-wave structure are chosen to improve the RBWO power handing …

A relativistic backward wave oscillator (RBWO) operating in dual (C and X) band is designed and studied using finite-difference time domain (FDTD) particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations implemented in MAGIC. It consists of a sinusoidally corrugated, moderately overmoded nonuniform slow wave structure (SWS) in …

Particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations using the MAGIC-3D code are performed to illustrate the beam-wave interaction behavior and the effects of pulse shortening in relativistic backward wave oscillator (RBWO) operating at a low guiding magnetic field. The causes of pulse-shortening phenomena such as beam …
