Abstract
A self-consistent, nonlinear model of orotron amplifiers is proposed f or investigating single-stage and multistage amplifiers. The single-re sonator amplifier is studied in detail including linear and nonlinear modes of amplification. A comparative study of both collective and sin gle-electron interaction regimes is performed. The fundamentals which determine the level of amplifier performance are identified, and limit ing output characteristics of the amplifier are determined. The theore tical results an compared with experimental data known to date.
