Plasma oscillations are of primary importance in accelerators with closed electron drift (ACDs) since they determine the conductivity and diffusion across the magnetic field and, therefore, the efficiency of ACD operation. Thus, it is impossible to clearly understand ACD operation without having a clear and comprehensive picture of the oscillations in them. Plasma oscillations in ACDs usually fall into ionization (10 exp 4 to 10 exp 5) Hz), transit (10 exp 5 to 10 exp 6 Hz), electron-drift (10 exp 7 Hz), electron cyclotronic (10 exp 9 Hz), and Langmuir (10 exp 8 to 10 exp 10 Hz) oscillations. The three former types are integral properties of the ACD plasma. The mechanisms of those oscillations, proposed just after the development of initial ACDs in the 1970s, contain a number of wrong assumptions and essential mistakes in the physical models, so they seriously contradict experimental data. This work aims to elaborate on a comprehensive universal mechanism of ACD oscillations that would account for not only the known types of oscillations, but also the phenomena accompanying them, such as electron conductivity, abnormal erosion, and plasma jet structure.
