Particle Acceleration in a Helical Wave Guide
arXiv:0903.1792 · doi:10.1142/9789814307017_0051
Abstract
The electromagnetic wave field propagating in a helical wave guide is decomposed in an angular momentum basis. Eigenmodes are calculated using a truncation in and a discretisation of the boundary condition. Modes slightly slower than light are considered for relativistic particle acceleration.
