On the kineteic theory of electron cyclotron maser
Abstract
This paper starts from the kinetic theory to expound the method of characteristics. Influence of the equilibrium distribution functionfo upon analyzed result is fully investigated. Dispersion equation is rigorously derived in waveguide coordinate system in case of interaction between TEmn field in a circular waveguide and a single momentum ring-shaped electron beam. In the meantime, we make some critical review of previous papers and clarify their confusion and ambiguities.
