Abstract :
Microwaves have been backscattered from magnetized, intense, relativistic electron beams to produce high-power outputs at a frequency far above that of the incident radiation. Two phenomena have been studied: (1) reflection from a refractive-index discontinuity near the beam front, and (2) stimulated magneto-Raman scattering from plasmons in the body of the beam.
