PFC / JA - 82 - 33 Cross - field Free Electron Laser Instability for a Tenuous Electron Beam
The free electron laser instability is investigated for a tenuous circulating electron beam propagating perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B 0 , and transverse wiggler field modeled by B. sin ky, in planar geometry. Unlike the rippled-field magnetron which operates at Brillouin flow, the present analysis assumes a low-density electron beam with w. 4D '. Making use of a macroscopic cold-f...
متن کاملTheory of Free Electron Laser Instability in a Relativistic Annual Electron Beam
A self-consistent theory of the free electron laser instability is developed for a hollow electron beam propagating through an undulator (multiple mirror) magnetic field. The stability analysis is carried out within the framework of the linearized Vlasov-Maxwell equations. It is assumed that the beam is thin, with radial thickness much smaller than the mean beam radius, and that v/yb << 1, wher...
متن کاملThe Free-electron Laser Collective Instability and the Development of X-ray Fels*
We discuss the physics of collective instabilities in particles beams, and consider one particular case: the free-electron laser (FEL) collective instability. We present a review of the main characteristics of this instability, and its application to the development of Self Amplified Spontaneous Emission (SASE) FELs from the infrared to the X-ray region.
متن کاملHydrodynamic instability of confined two-dimensional electron flow in semiconductors
Hydrodynamic instabilities in two-dimensional electron flow in ungated semiconductors are studied here. The driving force for the electrons is an imposed voltage difference that generates a unidimensional electric field inside the semiconductor and its surroundings. The governing equations are linearized for small perturbations around the steady-flow solution. The eigenvalue spectrum determinin...
متن کاملHydrodynamic instability of one-dimensional electron flow in semiconductors
The hydrodynamic instability of one-dimensional flow of electrons in an ungated semiconductor driven by a voltage difference is studied. The governing transport and electrostatic equations are linearized about the steady flow, and the eigenspectrum of perturbations is calculated. The carrier flow is found to be unstable under certain circumstances through oscillations that manifest themselves a...
