Hello, Bellow we can see an E-field lines of TE and TM mode
What is the differencein the way they behave?
I cant see from the photo the difference between them.
Upon what formula's we get such shape that from single point we go out as we see in TM.
Thanks.

The behavior of the mode is all in the phase constant \[ \beta \]. When ignoring loss, the various modes simply propagate at different speeds and have a different phase velocity. When loss is considered, modes that have the electric field polarized perpendicular to the walls will experience more loss during propagation.
