Abstract
The plasma tensor dielectric permittivity and electromagnetic field accurate expressions in the external axial magnetic field are obtained from the Maxwell’s equations and the double component plasma particle linear movement equations. Further, the flux of energy inside the plasma-cavity drift channel is presented. Based on them, some of the property of cavity passband dispersion and coupling resistance of plasma-filled coupled-cavities slow wave structure in different plasma density and magnetic field conditions is analyzed according to the numerical calculation.
