First experimental results are reported on the operation of a multimegawatt 2.856 GHz cyclotron autoresonance accelerator (CARA). A 90{endash}100 kV, 2{endash}3 MW linear electron beam has had up to6.6 MW added to it in CARA, with an rf-to-beam power efficiency of up to 96{percent}. This efficiency level is larger than that reported for any fast-wave interaction between radiation and electrons, and also larger than that in normal conducting rf linear accelerators. The results obtained are in good agreement with theoretical predictions. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
