Abstract
The trochoidal monochromator is commonly used to produce a monoenergetic el ectron beam in an axial magnetic field. By adding a retarding electric fiel d system at the entrance and a Faraday cup at the exit of the monochromator , such a dispersive device can be used to measure the energy distribution o f an electron beam. This device is used in a traveling wave tube in order t o study wave particle interactions. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physics. [S0034-6748(00)04611-6].
