Abstract :
The performance of peniotron amplifiers which use the axis-encircling beam produced by a combined solenoidal and wiggler magnetic field was investigated through computer simulations. The potential advantages of this new configuration are that it is capable of utilizing both beam longitudinal and transverse energy to amplify injected wave and reducing the severity of mode competition
