abstract:
A spherical compact matched load, for high vacuum operation
suited for short pulses (2MW. 0.1s.) precise measurement has
been designed to test high power gyrotrons. In order to enhance
the power handling capability of the load and to reduce the
operation problems that may arise from an excessive reflection
from the load a ray tracing code has been written to model the
power distribution on the inner surface and the pattern of the
reflected radiation. The outcome of this code has been used to
select a more convenient profile for the spreading mirror of the
load and to optimize a pre-load specially conceived to
minimize the power reflected fraction.
