At the University of Maryland, we have been evaluating the use of gyroklystrons to drive RF accelerators (Latham et al., 2004). In order to use our 500 kV, 500 A system to energize a 17.136 GHz accelerator structure built by the Haimson Research Corporation (HRC) (Haimson and Mecklenburg, 1998), we need to construct an interface that converts the gyroklystron TE/sub 02/ output mode into two standard rectangular WR42 waveguide modes. This structure needs to support up to 80 MW of pulsed power (1 /spl mu/s pulses) in a high-vacuum (/spl sim/10/sup -8/ T) environment. The design and cold test results for this system will be presented.
