Recent progress made in the prediction, characterisation, and mitigation of multipactor
discharge is reviewed for single‐and two‐surface geometries. First, an overview of basic …

The secondary electron emission (SEE) from materials used in high power RF devices in
space is the main trigger and sustaining mechanism of the resonant avalanche electron …

This work investigates the time-dependent physics of multipactor discharge on a single
dielectric surface with a transverse rf electric field of two carrier frequencies using a …

This paper presents two-surface multipactor discharge with two-frequency rf fields using
Monte Carlo simulations and Computer Simulation Technology (CST) Particle Studio. The …

We report computational and experimental research results confirming that surfaces with
porosity exceeding a certain threshold will fully suppress multipactor in parallel-plate …

This paper discusses different components of a high-power test setup for replicating
multipactor in a laboratory environment. We developed a broadband test cell for parallel …

To design a filter for a particular application, many issues must first be considered. Which
technology will be the most convenient? What design technique will provide better results for …

Multipactors are avalanches of secondary electrons occurred in high-power vacuum
microwave devices. Accurate prediction of their occurrences is challenging, especially for …

The aim of this paper is the study of the RF multipactor breakdown in coaxial transmission
lines excited by a single carrier with a digitally modulated signal. Employing an in-house …

The newly discovered “long-term” multicarrier multipactors that can be induced by low-
energy electric fields potentially threatens the reliability of spaceborne microwave systems. It …
