We analyze wavepacket propagation in traveling wave tubes (TWTs) analytically and numerically. TWT design in essence comprises a pencil-like electron beam in vacuum interacting with an electromagnetic wave guided by a slow-wave structure…
We propose a multi-particle self-consistent Hamiltonian (derived from an N-body description) that is applicable for periodic structures such as traveling-wave tubes (TWTs), gyrotrons, free-electron lasers, or particle accelerators. We build…
A scheme to characterize the dynamics of the electron beam-electromagnetic power exchange along a traveling wave tube (TWT) is proposed. The method is based on defining a state vector at discrete periodic locations along the TWT and…
We present the theory of a new amplification regime in Travelling Wave Tubes (TWTs) composed of a slow-wave periodic structure that supports multiple electromagnetic modes that can all be synchronized with the electron beam. The interaction…
Electron-beam plasma interaction has long been a topic of great interest. Despite the success of Quasi-Linear (QL) theory and Weak Turbulence (WT) theory, their validities are limited by the requirement of sufficiently dense mode spectrum…
The traveling tube (TWT) design in a nutshell comprises of a pencil-like electron beam (e-beam) in vacuum interacting with guiding it slow-wave structure (SWS). In our prior studies the e-beam was represented by one-dimensional electron…
Dispersive shock waves (DSWs) are expanding nonlinear wave trains that arise when dispersion regularizes a steepening front, a phenomenon observed in fluids, plasmas, optics, and superfluids. Here we report the first experimental…
Focusing on traveling wave tube (TWT) applications, the interaction impedance between an electron beam and electromagnetic modes in three distinct, but related, corrugated waveguides that operate at millimeter waves is investigated together…
It is not fully understood how electromagnetic waves propagate through plasma density fluctuations when the size of the fluctuations is comparable with the wavelength of the incident radiation. In this paper, the perturbing effect of a…
Data from the Van Allen Probes have provided the first extensive evidence of non-linear (as opposed to quasi-linear) wave-particle interactions in space with the associated rapid (fraction of a bounce period) electron acceleration to…
The standard classical description of non-laminar charge particle beams in paraxial approximation is extended to the context of two wave theories. The first theory is the so-called Thermal Wave Model (TWM) that interprets the paraxial…
The resonant interaction of relativistic electrons and whistler waves is an important mechanism of electron acceleration and scattering in the Earth radiation belts and other space plasma systems. For low amplitude waves, such an…
Resonant electron interaction with whistler-mode chorus waves is recognized as one of the main drivers of radiation belt dynamics. For moderate wave intensity, this interaction is well described by quasi-linear theory. However, recent…
The interaction between an electron and an elastic wave is investigated for HgTe and InAs-GaSb quantum wells. The well-known Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang model, i.e., the $4\times 4$ model for a two-dimensional (2D) topological insulator (TI), is…
Abstract We introduce a practical method for modeling the small-signal behavior of frequency-dispersive and inhomogeneous helix-type traveling-wave tube (TWT) amplifiers based on a generalization of the one-dimensional Pierce model. Our…
The plasma-liquid interaction is an important issue in plasma technology. The simulation of discharge in spherical bubbles in the water that produced plasma-activated water (PAW) is investigated using finite element methods (FEM) for a…
Thermal Wave Model is used to study the strong self-consistent Plasma Wake Field interaction (transverse effects) between a strongly magnetized plasma and a relativistic electron/positron beam travelling along the external magnetic field,…
Abstract -- We construct an analytical model for the dispersion of the hot modes in a traveling wave tube (TWT) based on the Lagrangian field theory, upgrading its constants to be frequency-dependent. The frequency dependence of the…
A simple and fast model for numerically calculating small-signal gain in serpentine waveguide traveling-wave tubes (TWTs) is described. In the framework of the Pierce model, we consider one-dimensional electron flow along a dispersive…
Suprathermal electrons and inertial drifting electrons, so called electron beam, are crucial to the nonlinear dynamics of electrostatic solitary waves observed in several astrophysical plasmas. In this paper, the propagation of…
