Abstract
The excitation of a wake wave by a relativistic electron beam in an unbounded magnetized plasma and a plasma waveguide is studied theoretically. It is shown that, in a waveguide partially filled with a plasma, the energy that the electrons of the accelerated beam can gain is 37 times higher than the energy of the electrons of the beam generating wakefield.
