Abstract :
A new hybrid maser instability is described for the case of wave interactions for an electron-beam (e-beam) propagating through an ion channel in a plasma-filled waveguide immersed in a finite axial magnetic field. Complete linear theoretical formulation and sample numerical calculations are presented. The significant features of this new hybrid instability are discussed.
