Download or read book Self Focusing of Relativistic Electron Bunches in Plasma written by Valery B. Krasovitskii and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the non-linear theory of electrostatic focusing of an electron beam split into bunches under conditions when the plasma permittivity at the modulation frequency is negative and the effective Coulomb force acting on the electron bunches is reversed. Conditions for the spatial equilibrium between the bunch and plasma emission, as well as the dynamics of the formation of focussed bunches, are confirmed by solving (both analytically and numerically) the self-consistent set of equations.
