Abstract
The cluster klystron is a new concept for providing a power source for future linear colliders. This type of klystron uses many parallel bea ms from magnetron injection gun sources inside a common solenoidal mag netic held. Since each individual beam has a low current, it should be possible to obtain high efficiency and after recombination of the bea ms, high output power. This paper describes the concept and preparatio ns for a proof of principle experiment now underway at Brookhaven Nati onal Laboratory (BNL).
