The radiation and propagation characteristics of a plasma column is theoretically studied in isothermal/non-isothermal regimes. The Boltzmann and Maxwell equations are employed to derive the radial profile of the electron temperature, electron density and the field components. It is found that by increasing the plasma density the plasma system goes toward the non-isothermal regime. It […]
AbstractAn analytical and numerical study is made on the dispersion properties of a cylindrical waveguide filled with plasma. An electron beam and static external magnetic field are considered as the mechanisms for controlling the field attenuation and possible stability of the waveguide. The effects of plasma warmness and inhomogeneity are also considered. Dispersion relations in […]
