Abstract
This paper describes a simple experiment which indicates some significant properties of the noise currents in a long electron stream, and verifies the applicability of the theory as worked out by Rack, Peterson, and Pierce to the noise properties of klystrons and traveling-wave tubes. An appendix shows that the observations are reasonably consistent with the theory.Keywords
