Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the excitation of long-wavelength oscillations in the interaction of a relativistic electron beam (REB) with a magnetized cold plasma. The unaffected densities of the REB and plasma are considered to be arbitrary under the condition of quasineutrality (i.e., no restriction about these densities). The interaction between a cold REB and the magnetized cold plasma is described by the linear dispersion relation and the growth rate. When compared to non-relativistic electron beam interacting with the unmagnetized cold plasma, the growth rate decreases. Long-wavelength oscillations are also detected to become unstable in that limit.
