Abstract

The cutoff frequencies of accelerating hybrid EH0l mode (l = 1, 2, 3, and 4) propagation are studied in a cylindrical waveguide filled with radially inhomogeneous plasma in the presence of an external static magnetic field applied along the waveguide axis. To drive the analytical cutoff equations, a model based on the Bessel-Fourier expansion, which considers strong spatial dispersion and a finite external magnetic field, is utilized. In order to examine the integrity of the cutoff equations, the well-known cutoff expression related to the hybrid EH wave in a homogeneous magnetized plasma waveguide is recalculated with the help of a new model. The cutoff equations are solved numerically, and the effects of the external magnetic field and plasma density are investigated on the cutoff frequencies of the EH0l modes (l = 1, 2, 3, and 4) in the particular waveguide with a radius of 2.1 cm. By studying the effect of the waveguide radius on the cutoff frequencies, it is revealed that the waveguide radius plays a decisive role in the behavior of the cutoff frequencies with the external static magnetic field and plasma density. It is found that a critical radius can be realized for the waveguide so that the cutoff frequency treatment with the external magnetic field and plasma density is reversed in it.
