Generalized Panofsky–Wenzel theorem and hybrid coupling

Abstract

The Panofsky–Wenzel theorem is reformulated for the case in which phase slippage between the wave and beam is not negligible. The extended theorem can be applied in analysis of detuned waveguides, RF injectors, bunchers, some tapered waveguides or high-power sources and multi-cell cavities for dipole and higher order modes. As an example, the relative contribution of the Lorentz’ component of the deflecting force is calculated for a conventional circular disk-loaded waveguide.
