Abstract :
Summary form only given. Protuberances (local maxima) in plasma density in the axial direction created by microwave pulses externally injected into a plasma-filled corrugated wall waveguide (slow wave structure, SWS) are observed experimentally. This is observed for moderately high microwave powers above a threshold value repeatedly under various conditions.
