ABSTRACT:
An electrostatic free electron laser having an electromagnetic waveguide, means to produce a periodic longitudinal electrostatic field along the waveguide and an electron beam which passes through the waveguide. Radiative energy is generated by the laser as a result of the kinetic energy lost by the electron beam as it is decelerated during its interaction with the electromagnetic wave and the electrostatic field within the waveguide. In use as an oscillator, the electrostatic free electron laser includes a resonator either in addition to or instead of the waveguide.
