Resonant generation of electromagnetic surface wave by inhomogeneous relativistic electron stream
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 March 2009
Abstract
Generation of electromagnetic surface waves by relativistic inhomogeneous particle flows is investigated for plane and cylindrical geometries. The basic excitation mechanisms are shown to be the induced anomalous Doppler effect and the hydrodynamic Čerenkov effect. The relevant maximal growth rates may differ significantly from those derived for monoenergetic beams.
