Abstract

A wake field excited by a relativistic electron bunch in a semi-infinite metal waveguide filled with a dielectric consists of the Vavilov-Cherenkov radiation, the “quenching”-wave field, and transient radiation, which interfere with each other. An exact analytic expression for the transient component of the field of a thin relativistic annular bunch is derived for the first time. The evolution of the space distribution of a field excited by a finite-size electron bunch is numerically calculated. The excitation of the wake field by a periodic train of electron bunches in a finite-length waveguide is studied.
