Description

The liner theory of electromagnetic radiation from a high-power backward wave oscillator (BWO) with a plasma filled, sinusoidally corrugated waveguide driven by a relativistic electron beam has been derived and analyzed numerically. It is shown that experimental results of enhanced radiation from plasma BWO's can be explained by the linear theory developed here. Among previous works on the study of BWO's, the authors describe what seems to be the first thorough analysis as an absolute instability
