Preliminary design of powerful gyrotrons for IGNITOR and DEMO

Design development of continuous-wave 240 GHz gyrotron and 300 GHz gyrotrons with output power about 200–1000 kW for fusion research at advanced plasmas with intense magnetic field is presented. Main goal of such gyrotrons is application for EC complexes of IGNITOR and DEMO tokamaks. This paper includes task motivation and existing technical basis, results of calculation, design, technical requirements and pre-prototype experimental tests for main subsystems of gyrotron.
