(under subclass 79) Subject matter wherein the means for controlling the beam comprises a resonator or a slow wave structure (delay line) effectively in energy-coupling relation to the moving beam of particles, the energy interchange between the particles and resonator or slow wave structure due to relative movement therebetween resulting in a change in velocity of given particles along the path of the beam, such differences in velocity of given particles causing the particles to form in groups or bunches.
