Particle simulations of divergent and convergent radial electron flows in cylindrical Pierce diodes

A special class of Pierce diodes, that consists of a pair of grounded coaxial cylindrical electrodes, with electrons streaming radially between them, is studied. The full set of roots of the dispersion relation of the Pierce instability is obtained by solving the dispersion relation numerically. The...
