Dispersion and growth characteristics in a circular waveguide loaded with alternate metal and dielectric discs

The excitation of the TM01 mode due to the interaction of a relativistic electron beam with guided wave in a circular waveguide loaded with alternate metal and dielectric discs is studied. The wave equation describing the excited field is solved to obtain the dispersion relation and growth rate. The...
