Abstract

A treatment is given of the problem of constructing normal modes for anarbitrarily bounded system from roots of the linear dispersion relation D( ω, k) = 0 for the corresponding infinite or periodically bounded system. For a system described by continuous macroscopic variables, and of general cylindrical form (uniform along an axis z, say), each transverse eigenmode gives rise to a set of axial normal modes constructed from a pair of dominant roots kαz(ω) of D = 0 satisfying the boundary conditions which are characterized by complex reflexion coefficients for the dominant waves. The implications of the results for the interpretation of experiments on plasma waves and instabilities on finite cylinders are discussed, with particular reference to the effects of end-plate damping and axial current on Q-machines.
