Abstract: 

A plasma—filled traveling—wave tube with а feedback is considered. The effect of the transverse component of the ponderomotive force on plasma density causes an additional phase shift of the wave which in a system with feedback significantly decreases the threshold for appearance of stochastic oscillations.
