Multipactor in the Brambilla grill

The Brambilla grill, used for feeding microwave power into some fusion devices, has been reported to have problems with multipactor. A possible solution is offered, based on observation of multipactor in the output waveguide of a large Klystron, and its suppression when the waveguide is distorted.     

Editorial, Jan. 1983 (Transactions)

As the outgoing Editor of this TRANSACTIONS I look back at three interesting years. I ask myself what has been accomplished for the MTT-S membership and the authors. Since there is very little feedback from the readers I like to think that, at least based on the number of papers rejected, only about 25 percent of the authors who have submitted papers to me are dissatisfied with my performance. Over these three years a total of 588 papers plus 10 special issues have been published.     

Technical Communication (Tenth Edition) (Lannon, J. M.; 2006)

This book addresses a wide spectrum of issues in technical communication, ranging from specific visual elements to the entire research process, from brief memos to formal proposals. Part I, "Communication in the Workplace," starts with how to prepare an effective technical document and deliver the essential information. In Part II, "The Research Process," the author outlines both the procedural and the inquiry stages of the research. Part III, "Structural and Style Elements," focuses on strategies for organizing and conveying messages that users can follow and understand: partitioning and classifying, outlining, storyboarding, paragraphing, sequencing, chunking, and creating an overview. Part IV, "Visual, Design, and Usability Elements," further enhances the discussion in Part II about technical documents. The author talks about the rhetorical implications of graphics and page design so that readers can learn to enhance a document's access, appeal, and visual impact for audiences. Part V, "Specific Documents and Applications," is a rich "think tank" of applications in technical communications. The author offers instructions on almost all the writing styles you can think of - from memos, instant messages, and webpages, to resumes, letters, and proposals. The last part, "A Brief Handbook with Addition Sample Documents," has three appendices that once again address the writing process, editing, and research findings documentation. Readers can also find a wealth of resources on the book's companion website: www.alongman.com/lannonweb. This book presents a panorama of technical communication, providing readers with a look at every aspect of this profession. It is not only a comprehensive textbook for classroom teaching, but also a valuable reference book for instructors and working professionals.
