Excitation of the Trivelpiece-Gould Wave in a Magnetized Plasma by a Slow Waveguiding Circuit II
Abstract
The possibility exciting the electron plasma wave (Trivelpiece-Gould wave) by using a slow waveguiding circuit is discussed, assuming a plasma with an inhomogeneous density distribution. The equi-phase lines of launched waves and their propagation features are studied in a plasma with density gradient at an oblique angle to the magnetic field. The results can be explained as a development of those reported for a plasma with density gradient perpendicular to the field.
