Abstract
Relations between various parameters are obtained which describe the behavior of an accelerated electron beam which is caused to traverse an alternating electric field. In particular, a mechanicographical means for obtaining the gain or loss of energy is described. It is shown that under the most favorable conditions a maximum of 17 percent of the energy in the accelerated beam may be transferred to the alternating field. Application of these principles to a type of ultra‐high frequency oscillator is treated.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
