This work presents a new theory of multipactor under multicarrier signals for parallel-plate
geometries, assuming a homogeneous electric field and one-dimensional electron motion. It
is the generalization of the nonstationary multipactor theory for single-carrier signals [S.
Anza et al, Phys. Plasmas 17, 062110 (2010)]. It is valid for multicarrier signals with an
arbitrary number of carriers with different amplitude, arbitrary frequency, and phase
conditions and for any material coating. This new theory is able to model the real dynamics …
