Abstract :
Summary form only given. The single-particle theory of electron multipactor is now well understood. The multipactor parameter space is spanned by the normalized magnetic and electric field parameters. In particular, for given normalized magnetic field /spl Omega/ multipactor can errupt within a certain range of electric field amplitudes /spl epsi//sub 1/\n\n\t\t
