Abstract. The paper presents the approach and results of development of the 170
GHz / 1 MW ITER gyrotron in Russia. The main problems of elaborating powerful
gyrotrons are discussed. Results of 170 GHz gyrotron tests are analyzed and
compared with the theory. ITER related 110 GHz and 140 GHz gyrotrons are also
investigated. The possibility to create a 170 GHz / 1 MW gyrotron for ITER is
proved by calculations and experiments.
