Abstract
A nonrelativistic electron beam (<4 keV) travels in this experiment in a non-dispersive waveguide along a planar undulator and an axial magn etic fields. The electron beam has a Gaussian pulse shape with a 1 ms pulse width. Two distinct radiation bursts are observed during the ele ctron energy sweep. Each burst contains a different range of microwave frequencies. One burst corresponds to the FEM interaction, at similar to 0.8 GHz. The other burst corresponds to the cyclotron resonance in teraction, at similar to 5 GHz. This experiment demonstrates an FEM op eration in an extremely long wavelength (37.5 cm) in the UHF regime..
