heal.abstract	The non-linear analysis is presented of an electron-cyclotron maser in which exclusively axial initial electron velocity is employed. The equations of motion for each individual electron are obtained leading to the invariants of motion and to the appropriate dimensionless quantities that govern the interaction. The study of the invariants proves that the interaction is possible. The topology of phase-space trajectories and the regions of parameter values for efficient operation are investigated. Analytical expressions for the efficiency and optimal interaction length are obtained. Numerical examples are presented showing a high efficiency (up to 60%), a reasonable optimal length (0.1-0.4 m) and a moderately high operation frequency (6-30 GHz).	en
