Abstract
A coaxial amplifier having at least one electron beam is provided. The amplifier may include a conductive rod, a plurality of parallel discs on the rod, a cathode array for producing at least one electron beam. When a plurality of electron beams are formed they are arranged in an annular configuration around said rod and disks, and directed along said rod and coaxially thereof. A first waveguide may apply electromagnetic wave energy to one end of said disc and rod assembly to induce propagation of said energy along said assembly. A second waveguide may extract the amplified electromagnetic energy from the other end of the disc and rod assembly.
