  • Abstract
    The "beam-blowup" phenomenon associated with traveling-wave linear electron accelerators is examined. An equation describing the interaction between the electron beam and the TM11backward-wave mode is developed, and solutions of the equation presented. Computed blowup times as a function of beam current are compared, and show good agreement, with experimental results obtained elsewhere. Possible methods for suppression of blowup are advanced.
