ABSTRACT: The Air Force Research Laboratory/Phillips Laboratory magnetically
insulated transmission line oscillator (MILO) is a gigawatt-class,
L-band, high-power microwave tube driven by a 500-kV, 60-kA electron
beam. A previous version of this tube generated 1.5 GW pulses, but with
significant RF pulse shortening, The paper reports on improvements to
the tube that have allowed us to increase the output power by 25% and to
increase the RF pulse duration by a factor of two and a half
