STUDY OF MICROWAVE GENERATION BY MEANS OF ELECTRON BEAM INTERACTION WITH ANISOTROPIC MEDIA. (2005)

Paik,S. F., Briggs,R. J.

The interaction between electron beams and anisotropic media is investigated as a possible means of generating microwave energy. Two particular anisotropic materials being considered for the present...

STUDY OF MICROWAVE GENERATION BY MEANS OF ELECTRON BEAM INTERACTION WITH ANISOTROPIC MEDIA. (2005)

PAIK,S. F., Briggs,R. J., Osepchuk,J. M.

The possibility of generating a microwave signal by means of an interaction between electron streams and various anisotropic media is investigated. In particular, properties of microwave slow-wave...

The Modular Point Design for Heavy Ion Fusion (2004)

Yu, S.S., Barnard, J.J., Briggs, R.J., Callahan, D., Celata, C.M., Chao, L., ...

We report on an ongoing study on modular Heavy Ion Fusion drivers. The modular driver is characterized by 10 to 20 nearly identical induction linacs, each carrying a single high current beam. In this...

Experimental Investigation of Beam-Plasma Interactions with an Intense Relativistic Electron Beam, (2002)

Hester,R. E., Briggs,R. J.

The experimental program uses the 4 MeV, 100 ampere, 0.3 microsec pulse width, beam from the Astron accelerator facility to study the interaction of an intense relativistic electron beam with a gas...

STUDY OF MICROWAVE GENERATION BY MEANS OF ELECTRON BEAM INTERACTION WITH ANISOTROPIC MEDIA. (1998)

Paik,S. F., Briggs,R. J.

Results of experimental work on annular plasma columns are presented. The plasma density was determined by measuring the dipole resonance using a section of a stripline. Results of the stripline...

THE ROLE OF LANDAU DAMPING IN CROSSED-FIELD ELECTRON BEAMS AND INVISCID SHEAR FLOW. (1998)

Briggs,R. J., Daugherty,J. D., Levy,R. H.

Under certain circumstances the problem of the stability of low density crossed-field electron beams is precisely analogous to the problem of the stability of incompressible inviscid shear flows. The...

STUDY OF CYCLOTRON AND SYNCHRONOUS WAVE DEVICES. (1998)

Paik,S. F., Harris,N. W., Briggs,R. J.

An experimental study of the circuit used in earlier experiments showed that oscillations observed were due to the interaction of the electron beam with undesirable modes and space-harmonics which...

STUDY OF CYCLOTRON AND SYNCHRONOUS WAVE DEVICES. (1998)

Briggs,R. J., Paik,S. F.

A theoretical analysis of the beam energy spread induced by transverse-wave interactions is presented. The theory includes effects of finite beam size, space charges and rotation of the beam. A...

MICROWAVE ELECTRONICALLY VARIABLE ION BEAM TIME DELAY DEVICE STUDY. (1998)

Briggs, R. J.

Studies of the ion-beam delay line this quarter were in the areas of beam transmission through a depressed drift tube and the theoretical analysis of space-charge waves on a drifting multivelocity...

MICROWAVE ELECTRONICALLY VARIABLE ION BEAM TIME DELAY DEVICE STUDY. (1998)

Briggs, R. J., Paik, F. S.

Experimental studies of the transit-time delay and the low-frequency modulation of the ion-beam are described. The variable delay in the transit time of up to 1 microsec has been obtained through a...

MICROWAVE ELECTRONICALLY VARIABLE ION BEAM TIME DELAY DEVICE STUDY. (1998)

Paik, S. F., Briggs, R. J.

Experimental studies of the ion-beam delay line at 500 MHz are described. The emphasis of the present study is on the technique of ion-beam modulation by the transfer of modulation from an electron...

MICROWAVE ELECTRONICALLY VARIABLE ION BEAM TIME DELAY DEVICE. (1998)

Chorney, P., Briggs, R. J., Chow, K. K., Paik, S. F.

The objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of a microwave time-delay device employing an ion beam. The inherently low drift velocity of ion suggests the possibility of a broadband...

Effects of New American Schools' Designs in a High-Poverty District: A Cautionary Tale (1998)

Berneds, Mark, Chun, Joan, Schuyler, Gina, Stockly, Sue, Briggs, R. J.

A decade ago, New American Schools (NAS) launched an ambitious effort for whole-school reform to address the perceived lagging achievement of American students and the lackluster school reform...

Challenges of Conflicting School Reforms: Effects of New American Schools in a High-Proverty District (1998)

Berends, Mark, Chun, JoAn, Schuyler, Gina, Stockly, Sue, Briggs, R. J.

A decade ago, New American Schools (NAS) launched an ambitious effort for whole-school reform to address the perceived lagging achievement of American students and the lackluster school reform...
