Abstract
In the multianode cylindrical magnetron there exist favored phase velocities of the electromagnetic wave around the interaction space between anode and cathode. These velocities are characteristic of the resonant system attached to the anode segments. In the oscillating magnetron the electronic space charge within the interaction space is presumed to maintain sychronism with one of these velocities. Certain of the conditions of synchronism which can be discussed analytically are treated in this paper. The results, although based on restrictive assumptions, can be used in the interpretation of magnetron operation and in predicting regions of efficient behavior
