Abstract :
Nonlinear theory of a backward wave oscillator (BWO) configuration of plasma assisted slow wave device (Pasotron) is developed. It is shown that the space charge effects in bunching the electrons in Pasotron are quiet different role than that of the linear-beam devices with strong magnetic field. A relation for the efficiency as a function of the radial electric field is derived and analyzes its dependence on the electron beam phase locking.
