Raman scattering by a parallel relativistic electron beam was examined analytically and by using the numerical simulation. Incident wave energy can be transferred not only to the scattered electromagnetic wave but also to the beam. That is, the beam can be accelerated by the Doppler-shifted plasma oscillation accompanied by the scattered wave. The energy conversion rates for them were obtained. They increase with the ..gamma.. value of the electron beam. For the larger ..gamma.. values of the beam, the energy of the incident wave is mainly transferred to the beam, while in smaller ..gamma.., the energy conversion rate to the scattered wave is about 0.2 times that to the beam. Even in smaller ..gamma.., the total energy conversion rate is about 0.1.
