Abstract
The FEL-twystron with self-exciting input and profiled amplifier outpu t sections is suggested for realization of effective particle trapping and adiabatic deceleration in an oscillator regime. Such a scheme is especially attractive, when distribution of the RF field in the region between sections is smooth. This can be provided, in particular, by t he use of distributed feedback in the input section. According to calc ulations, the proposed method allows a significant increase in efficie ncy for FEL-ubitrons and CARMs. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rig hts reserved.
