Abstract :
An integral equation method for evaluating the electronic behavior of traveling-wave amplifiers is given. This method is utilized to obtain the effects of a thick beam and variations in dc density and dc velocity across the beam. Curves of the space charge parameter 4QC and impedance K are obtained for thick beams, which compare favorably with those of Pierce.
