Time-dependent field equations for paraxial relativistic electron beams: Beam Research Program

Description: A simplified set of field equations for a paraxial relativistic electron beam is presented. These equations for the beam electrostatic potential phi and pinch potential Phi identical to A/sub z/ - phi retain previously neglected time-dependent terms and for axisymmetric beams reduce exactly to Maxwell's equations.

Steady-state approximations in Raman excitation equations

Description: This memo presents equations describing propagation of beams of nearly monochromatic radiation through a Raman-active molecular vapor, under conditions of steady excitation of quantum-mechanical molecules by classical radiation (that is, by radiation that comprises a large number of photons per mode). Such conditions apply in the continuous-wave experiments that are conducted to measure such properties as Raman gain or Raman scattering cross sections. Under those circumstances the propagation i… more

2, Pulse-mode expansions and refractive indices in plane-wave propagation

Description: This memo presents basic background theory for treating simultaneous propagation of electromagnetic pulses of various colors, directed along a common ray, through a molecular vapor. The memo discusses some techniques for expanding the positive frequency part of the transverse electric field into pulse modes, characterized by carrier frequencies within a modulated envelope. We discuss, in the approximation of plane waves with slowly varying envelopes, a set of uncoupled envelope equations in whi… more
