Simulation of the dynamics of resistive hose instability of a relativistic electron beam propagating in a resistive plasma channel with arbitrary conductivity

详细

The spatial dynamics of the resistive hose instability of a relativistic electron beam has been studied for the case when the charge neutralization time is much longer, on the order of, or much shorter than the current compensation time. It has been found that the growth of this instability has the highest increment when the charge neutralization time is on the order of skin time.
