Abstract

A study is made of the effect of the parameters of a beam and a plasma-filled waveguide in a traveling-wave tube amplifier on the stability of the amplification regime against the excitation of ion acoustic waves by the microwave ponderomotive force. It is shown that, in such an amplifier, the stability of the amplification of a microwave can be achieved by simultaneously increasing the density and energy of the electron beam.
