New possibilities of collectors with azimuthal magnetic field for multistage energy recovery in gyrotrons

The results of modeling a collector with 4-stage recovery of residual electron energy for the SPbPU gyrotron with a frequency of 74.2 GHz and an output power of 100 kW are presented. For spatial separation of electrons with different energies, an azimuthal magnetic field created by a toroidal solenoid is used. An increase of the recovery efficiency and a decrease of the current of electrons reflected from the collector is achieved by reducing the spread of the radial position of the leading centers of electron trajectories at optimal parameters of the toroidal solenoid, as well as by using a sectioned electron beam. The trajectory analysis of the spent electron beam in the collector region showed the possibility of achieving the total efficiency of the gyrotron, close to 80%.
