V. I. Kalinin, SrjazIiadat, (Library of Congsesa,
The basic idea of this book is a unified concept for "generators of elec-
tronic oscillations," which was stated by the author in his doctor's disserta-
tion, "Principles of the Kinematic Theory of Generating Electronic Oscilla-
tions". The work a., this dissertation was done from 1939 to 1943 and some of
the tateriel therein was used in discussing a number of problems, especially
in Chapters V and VI. Other source material used by the author came from the
fdkRttig: (1) courses which he taught from 1941 to 1948 to radio-physics stu-
dents of Saratov, Leningrad, and Rostov universities; (2) a scientific
radio ics seminar conducted In the author's laboratory in 1942 - 1943;
and (3)a a ni b.r of dissertations submitted from 1939 to 1946. The author
was aided in sur, ying and formulating the notes by Candidates of Physico-
mathematical Sciences V. L. Patrushev and G. M. Gershteyn, senior scientific
collaborators attanhed to the radio- ics laboratory "AIIMP (Scientific
Research Institute of Microwave 4 Physics), Saratov State University.
In Chapter I, the author compiles a table listing the oscillation bands,
resonance frequencies, tank circuits (butterfly, "semibutterfly," etc.),
operating frequencies, and the stability for the following oscillator tubes:
33-i, 368-A, 703-A, 464 ("lighthouse"), and 6P4. The mat-rtsl on tank circuits
and cavity resonators given in Chapter I seems to follow that given in
similar books published in the US.
Chapter II discusses the usual tubes used for ultrahigh frequencies,
plus a few Soviet tubes. A table listing the results obtained by Devyatkov,
Gurevich, and Khokblov with the experimental tube DTs-21 is given in the
"AT[

discussion on tubes employing negative feedback. The DTs-21 will be adapted
to mass production shortly in the form of a metal. tube. the DTsM-l. Tests
of this megatron have shown that it can be used as a low-power oscillator
for 20-25 centimeter waves with 200 volts on the plate. More powerful
oscillations (from 1 to 5 watts) can be obtained for 30-60 centimeter waves.
It may also be used as a high-frequency amplifier in these bands.
In the section on magnetrons in Chapter II, mention is made of the
work done by N. Kuz'min in 1941 and V. I. Kalinin and I. I. Vasserman in
1946 on multisegment magnetrons. The Soviet scientists N. Alekseyev and
circuit in the form of a cylindrical cavity in a solid block of cuprite,
with the intra-anode space connected by a narrow sloi. Alekseyev and
Melyarov obtained up to 300 watts power for 9-centimeter waves using a
water-cooled sectional magnetrog with four resonant cavities. A solder-
less tube of the same eoustruction developed over 100 watts power for the
The basic results obtained by Alekseyev and Malyarov for various types
of magnetrons are listed in a table. N. A. Kuz'min ("Excitation of Ultrahigh
Frequency Electromagnetic oscillations in Multiphase Systemr?," Candidate's
dissertation, Leningrad State University, 1941) built "group radiators,"
which are magnetron systems with anodes consisting of a certain number of
very short-wave oscillatory circuits forming a cylindrical surface. In de-
signs intended for obtaining very short waves, these circuits are resonance
dipoles built up into voltage nodes by one carrying ring, the filament
being placed along the axis of tpe ring. The whole unit makes up one "polar
periphery." A system with two polar peripheries is similarly constructed.
Using units of this type with up to 12 and 18 dipoles, wave lengths of .4,
2.6, 3.2, and 3.4 centimeters have been obtained with intensity sufficient
for laboratory purposes. Operating characteristics are given for the MM-11
(one polar periphery) and the MN-18 (two polar peripheries) tubes. The sec-
tion on velocity-modulated oscillators includes diagrams of klystron designs
by U. A. Katsoan which were probably developed In 1946.
Chapters III, IV, V, and V2 are devoted to theoretical calculations
involved in the design and operation of ultrahigh-frequency tubes. No further
data relating to actual Soviet tubes or their applications is included.
The last chapter develops a similar discussion for electron trajectories,
currents, power, etc., in magnetron oscillators.
