Electrical power is transmitted from a transmitting location to a remote receiving location by means of an electron beam injected into an evacuated magnetically shielded pipe extending between the transmitting location and the receiving location. The beam is magnetically focused within the evacuated pipe. Electrical power to be transmitted is put into the beam in the form of kinetic energy by accelerating the beam to a high kinetic energy. The kinetic energy is extracted from the beam at the receiving location and converted into potential electrical energy for application to the load. In one embodiment, the kinetic energy is extracted from the beam by collecting the beam current at a potential substantially equal to the potential of the source of the electrons, i.e. cathode potential, and causing the collected beam current to flow through the load to develop the depressed collector potential. In another embodiment, radio frequency accelerator means are utilized for r.f. current density modulating and accelerating the beam. The radio frequency current modulation on the beam is extracted at the receiving end by means of radio frequency circuits coupled to the beam. The extracted radio frequency energy is rectified for application to the load. In another embodiment, AC power at conventional AC power frequencies, as of 60 Hertz, is extracted from the beam by sequentially directing the beam into a plurality of depressed collectors coupled to respective primary windings of power transformers for deriving AC output power for application to a load.

The frequency of a microwave source, such as a magnetron of klystron, is locked to the variable frequency of a resonant load. A sample of the microwave power incident on the load is derived from the magnetron and compared in a phase comparator with a sample of the microwave energy reflected from the resonant load to derive an error signal representative of the frequency departure of the frequency of the microwave source from the resonant frequency of the load. The error signal is utilized for driving a tuner for tuning the frequency of the microwave source to the frequency of the load. In a preferred embodiment the phase comparator comprises a three db four port microwave hybrid coupler having a pair of outputs, the outputs of which are rectified by microwave diodes and subtracted to produce the error signal. The length of the transmission path from the microwave source to the phase comparator circuit is made longer than the length of the transmission path from the microwave source to the load and back to the phase comparator circuit in order to skew the frequency discriminator output characteristic of the phase comparator in order to eliminate ambiguities in the sense of the error signal at frequencies far removed from the resonant frequency of the load.

The invention relates to an arrangement for accelerating, to a predetermined velocity at least one bunch from a bunched beam of particles, the length of said bunch corresponding to one cycle of the high frequency of the accelerator. In this arrangement the injection voltage V of the beam is raised to a value larger than the cut-off voltage Vc of the accelerator, exclusively during a short period. Said injection voltage V is created by the addition of a pulsed voltage Vo and high-frequency voltages V1 and V2 generated in resonant cavities 3 and 4 disposed in the trajectory of the beam and tuned respectively to a sub-multiple of said high frequency.

A beam transport device for a particle beam traversing first and second sections of a beam tube includes a pair of bellows each having an end mounted to an associated one of the sections of the beam tube. Interposed of the bellows and sealed to associated ends thereof are a particle-beam-extraction window and a rigid hollow member juxtaposed of the extraction window. Motive means are coupled to provide motion to the extraction window and rigid hollow member whereby they may be respectively aligned with the particle beam upon deformation of the bellows.
