Scientific paper

Motivated by the need to explain observed elliptically polarized emission from Jupiter, the mechanism of electron-cyclotron maser emission is considered for drifting electron distributions, where the electrons stream with a non-zero mean velocity parallel to the magnetic field lines. An analytical expression for the semirelativistic growth rate is derived and its properties analysed in detail for waves generated in the magneto-ionic modes. The main features of the growth rate are discussed, on the basis of a geometric analysis using resonant ellipses.
