Abstract :
The natural modes of oscillation of an electron beam backward-wave oscillator are determined when the dc beam current exceeds the start oscillation value. The initial time-rate of buildup of these oscillations and the space variations of the beam and circuit excitations before nonlinearities set in are given.
