*Very sobering gigaWatt electron beam research,
*posted at American Physical Society, online (http://www.aps.org)*

94-GHz Harmonic Gyrotrons

/R.C. Stutzman, D.B. McDermott, N.C. Luhmann Jr. (UC Davis), T.A.
Spencer (Phillips Lab.)/

25-100 kW, 94 GHz, s=2-8 harmonic gyrotrons utilizing both MIG and Cusp
electron guns are being developed at a new facility at UCD. The initial
experiment will test a 25 kW, second-harmonic TE_02 gyrotron using a 25
kV, 4 A, v_t/v_z=1.5, MIG electron beam with a predicted device
efficiency of 25%. Although a high-T_c superconducting magnet has been
designed for this device, the tests will employ a conventional
superconducting solenoid. Designs will also be presented for a
4th-harmonic, 35 kW, 14% efficient, smooth-bore TE_41 gyrotron; a
4th-harmonic, 75 kW, 30% efficient, slotted gyrotron; and an
8th-harmonic, 22 kW, 9% efficient, permanent magnet, slotted gyrotron
that will all use a 70 kV, 3.5 A, v_t/v_z=2, axis-encircling electron
beam from a Cusp gun on order from Northrop Grumman.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

*And by "scary" I mean in regard to war machines, and the capability our
gene pool continually engenders which strives to specifically destroy
cultural instabilities within our own gene pool.

I suppose the "scary" part is the male-dominant war-mode culture of
today's high-stress world of complex problems is by nature empowered to
maintain the power over others with technology.

So long as we continually view cultures not of our own as problems
rather than solutions, we will continually never find an off-ramp from
our mass-migration to the cliff edge with all our fellow lemmings.
