dc.description.abstractIn order to expand the range of mechanical tuning of generation frequency in a subgigawatt Cherenkov microwave oscillator, it is proposed to use a configuration of relativistic backward-wave oscillator (BWO) having no reflectors with the radiation output in the direction opposite to the electron beam. In a numerical experiment using KARAT electromagnetic PiC code, it is demonstrated that in this case, due to only variation of the slow-wave structure (SWS) period, it is possible to change the oscillation frequency by tens of percent preserving the TM01 operation mode. The frequency tuning range is thereby limited from below by the lower boundary of the SWS passband, near which the BWO oscillation regime is displaced by the orotron regime, and from above by high-frequency excitation of the competing TM02 mode. A moderately relativistic microwave oscillator is simulated with a tuning band between 2.73 and 4.15 GHz (frequency ratio 1.52) at the (-3 dB) level of the maximum microwave power (520 MW at 3.85 GHz). The feeding electron beam having 460 keV particle energy and 4.7 kA current is transported by the magnetic field with an induction of 1.0 T. Additional simulations demonstrate that the frequency tuning range is extendable to approximately an octave at the cost of lower generation efficiency.</p>
