Stability conditions for electron bunches captured by an electromagnetic wave in a longitudinal static electric field
Abstract
An analysis of the stability of electron bunches in distributed systems shows that stable motion of a captured electron bunch can be achieved only when the phase width of the bunch is less than 4.8 radians at all points along the z axis. It is also required that the absolute intensity of the static electric field be less than the longitudinal intensity component of the electric field of the electromagnetic wave. The less the phase width of the bunch at the inlet, the greater is the efficiency of energy conversion.
