Abstract

The development of conventional beam–plasma instability in a system penetrated by short electron bunches is considered. The fields induced by the bunches' edges increase exponentially and actually serve as initial perturbations for instability development. It is shown that superposition of the field induced by front and back edges results in a complicated configuration that can affect various aspects of operation of devices for short-pulse microwave generation, e.g. transient processes.
