Divided into two parts, the first part of this text deals with basic electromagnetics and the second part with beam-wave electronics in growing-wave devices including "slow-wave" travelling-wave tubes and "fast-wave" gyro-travelling-wave tubes. The first part is a prerequisite for the second which covers the application of the topics discussed in the first part. Overall, the volume is a self-contained treatise. In the specific application considered, both time-independent and time-dependent field concepts are exemplified, unlike in the usual topics, such as waveguides, antennas etc. of...

Presents a bird's-eye view of microwave tubes (MWTs) which continue to be important despite competitive incursions from solid-state devices (SSDs). The book offers a broad and introductory survey to encourage readers to explore the field of MWTs further in selected areas of relevance to their respective interests.
