A klystron which employs a reflector (repeller) electrode in place of a second resonant cavity to redirect the velocity-modulated electrons through the resonant cavity. The repeller causes one resonant circuit to serve as both input and output, which simplifies the tuning operation. This type of klystron is well adapted for use as an oscillator because the frequency is easily controlled by varying the position of the repeller.

On the other hand, a ball can be poised in unstable equilibrium on a pencil's point. When the initial position is near this equilibrium, the ball seems to be pushed away, before converging to stable equilibrium elsewhere. The set of all unstable equilibrium states, plus their limit points, is called repeller.
