Abstract

The variations of the maximum growth rate and the associated frequency of oscillation and the drift velocity with the change in the number density of the streaming electrons relative to that of the stationary electrons are discussed for the instability of the longitudinal plasma wave having its wave vector in the direction of the electron stream. It is found that the maximum growth rate has the largest value when the number densities of the stationary and the streaming electrons are equal.
