Studies are made on electromagnetic field excitation by a charged
particle bunch, entering a half infinite metal wave-guide, filled up
by a dielectric material. The wave-guide end-face through which the
bunch comes in is closed off by a metal wall. Such situations are
considered when the Vavilov-Cherenkov radiation emission condition is
fulfilled and when this radiation emission is absent. Using a method,
employed earlier in the study of electromagnetic signal propagation in
the ionosphere, precise analytical expressions are obtained for the
fields, containing the Lommel function from two variables. Excited
field spatial pictures are presented, as obtained via numeric calculations
for different values of the bunch energy and kind shape as well as
permittivity. The boundary influence is studied on the wake-field
excitation by a resonance bunch chain. It is shown that oscillations
with a broad are excited in the semi-bounded wave-guide in the Cherenkov
resonance absence.
