rhumbatronn.

Brit.

/ˈrʌmbətrɒn/, U.S.

/ˈrəmbəˌtrɑn/

Forms: 1900s– rhumbatron, 1900s– rumbatron.

Origin: A borrowing from Greek, combined with an English element. Etymons: Greek ῥύμβος , -tron suffix.

Etymology: Irregularly < ancient Greek ῥύμβος, ῥόμβος whirling motion (see rhombus n.) + -tron suffix.

Electronics. Now historical.

Each of two cavity resonators in a klystron, the first of which uses a high-frequency voltage to cause bunching of an electron beam, and the second of which uses this beam to induce a larger high-frequency voltage.
