Abstract
Distributed (relay-race) interaction between the wide strip electron beam and the traveling space field harmonic in the presence of the transverse static magnetic field in the drift space is studied theoretically. Designing of microwave devices of traveling wave klystron type is analyzed. These devices use spatial (distributed) modulation of the electron velocity followed by the electron dynamic focusing in the drift space.
KEY WORDS: relay-race interaction, traveling wave klystron, strip electron beam, transverse magnetic field, drift space, dynamic focusing
