CERN designed High Efficiency klystron successfully tested
CERN designed High Efficiency klystron successfully tested By Frank Gerigk, RF Group Leader Last week there was for the first time a successful factory test of the CERN designed High Efficiency klystron. The goal was to increase the efficiency and output power of an existing 6 MW, 12 GHz klystron (Canon E37113), used in one
