Abstract
We derive a theory of the Raman regime ion-ripple laser in a plasma wa veguide, which consists of a relativistic electron beam obliquely prop agating through an ion-ripple channel surrounded by a plasma cladding. When the beam electron current I(b) greater-than-or-equal-to 2 kA, th e plasma waveguide may guide the radiation of any high frequency and e nhance the growth rate.
