electron beam, space-charge wave, eigenwaves, coupled waves, beam instability, instability increment, Vavilov–Cherenkov effectAbstract
An electrodynamic system, where a magnetized tubular electron beam blows around a cylindrical solid-state plasma waveguide, has been theoretically studied. It is established that the hybrid bulk-surface or surface electromagnetic waves of the helicon origin are excited in the waveguide, if quasi-stationary conditions are satisfied. The waveguide eigenwaves are excited by the beam space-charge field with the matching of the longitudinal spectral components of the electric field. The non-reciprocity effect is pointed out between the waveguide eigenwaves with the structurally identical field distributions but different azimuthal directions of propagation, as well as if the direction of the external magnetic field changes. It is shown that the instability of coupled waves of the electrodynamic system takes place due to the Vavilov–Cherenkov effect.
