Abstract
Multipactor is an avalanche multiplication of the number of electrons in radio-frequency devices due to secondary electron emission. One of the possible modes of this kind of discharge was studied in detail and was named “a ping-pong mode” in a publication by R. A. Kishek [Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 035003 (2012) and Phys. Plasmas 20, 056702 (2013)]. In the present paper, I show that conditions of stability and cutoff limits are quite different from those derived in the cited papers.
