A future linear collider with a multi-TeV level of energies of the collided particles in the center of masses is naturally associated with high frequencies and a high power RF level. One of the interfering factors in this way is an effect of copper damage due to multi-pulse mechanical stress caused by high-power microwaves. In order to get new information about this effect, we started an experiment with the test cavity fed by 30 GHz FEM oscillator (15-30 MW, 100-200 ns, 0.5 - 1 Hz). Now we finished the second phase of this experiment where the test cavity was irradiated by 0.1 millions of RF pulses with temperature rise ~140 C in each pulse. The third phase is the experiment with 1 million pulses. In the next planned experiment with 36 GHz magnetron (0.1-0.15 MW, 1-2 mks, 0.01 - 1 kHz) we are going to investigate the thermal fatigue in most interesting for collider application region of temperatures (30-50 C). It is expected that these two experiments will supply necessary statistical information for the developed theory of the thermal fatigue in order to extrapolate lifetime numbers to other values of the temperature rise and pulse duration.

Achievement of high acceleration gradients in room-temperature structures requires basic studies of electric and magnetic RF field limits at surfaces of conductors and dielectrics. Facilities for such studies at 11.4 GHz have been in use at KEK and SLAC; facilities for studies at 17.1 GHz are being developed at MIT and UMd; and studies at 30 GHz are being conducted at CERN using the CLIC drive beam to generate short intense RF pulses. Longer pulse studies at 34 GHz are to be carried out at a new test facility being established at the Yale Beam Physics Laboratory, built around the Yale/Omega-P 34-GHz magnicon. This high-power amplifier, together with an available ensemble of components, should enable tests to be carried at up to about 9 MW in 1 mcs wide pulses at up to four output stations or, using a power combiner, at up to about 35 MW in 1 mcs wide pulses at a single station. RF pulse compression is planned to be used to produce 100-200 MW, 100 ns pulses; or GW-level, 1 mcs wide pulses in a resonant ring. A number of experiments have been prepared to utilize multi-MW 34-GHz power for accelerator R&D, and users for future experiments are encouraged to express their interest.

Basic studies of factors that limit RF fields in warm accelerator structures require experiments at RF power levels that can only be produced from an intense drive beam, as with CLIC studies, or using pulse compression of output pulses from the RF source. This latter approach is being implemented to compress output pulses from the Yale/Omega-P 34-GHz magnicon to produce ~100-200 MW, 100 ns pulses. A new approach for passive pulse compression is described that uses a SLED-II-type circuit operating with axisymmetrical modes of the TE0n type that requires only a single channel instead of the usual double channel scheme. This allows avoidance of a 3-dB coupler and need for simultaneous fine tuning of two channels. Calculations show that with this device at 34 GHz one can anticipate a power gain of 3.3:1, and an efficiency of 66% for a 100 ns wide output pulse, taking into account losses and a realistic 50-ns long 180 degrees phase flip.
