Abstract
Linear transformatlon of beam space-charge waves and of magnetoactive plasma oscillations by influencing density inhomogeneities is investigated. It is shown that amplification of plasma oscillations by a beam occurs either in the presence of a nonlinear longitudinal plasma density gradient or at the expense of transverse inhomogeneity, Anisotropy of transverse wave emission by a charge in a magnetoactive plasma with a smooth longitudinal density inhomogeneity is observed.
