Electromagnetic Theory and Applications in Beam-Wave Electronics

Divided into two parts, this text first deals with basic electromagnetics and then with beam-wave electronics in growing-wave devices including "slow-wave" travelling-wave tubes and "fast-wave" gyro-travelling-wave tubes. The first part is a prerequisite for the second part, while the second part covers the application of the topics discussed in the first part. These two parts put together make the volume a self-contained treatise. In the specific application considered, both time-independent and time-dependent field concepts are exemplified, unlike in the usual topics, such as waveguides, antennas etc. of microwave engineering, where only time-dependent field concepts are applied. Emphasis is on providing complete analytical derivation.
