  • Abstract
    The problems of wave propagation on a cylindrical electron beam in vacuum and in a plasma background are examined in an exact treatment, i.e., from Maxwell´s equations, including relativistic effects. It is shown that certain ambiguous features of the more usual nonrelativistic quasistatic analysis are thereby resolved.
