Book Description
The experimental program uses the 4 MeV, 100 ampere, 0.3 microsec pulse width, beam from the Astron accelerator facility to study the interaction of an intense relativistic electron beam with a gas column, usually at a pressure of a few mm Hg. The beam promptly ionizes the gas, generating a plasma column in and around the beam. In this environment measurements were made pertinent to two beam driven instabilities, namely the streaming instability and the hose instability.
TRITON. An Experiment for Studying the Interaction of an Intense Relativistic Electron Beam with a Plasma

Book Description
The TRITON experiment for the study of plasma heating by intense, relativistic electron beams is described. A 1.2 MV beam of 150 kA of electrons is injected into a 4 M long theta pinch. The rationale for the design of this experiment is discussed in terms of the existing theory of the intense beam plasma interaction. (Author).

Book Description
An intense (5 x 105 Amp/cm2), relativistic (5 MeV), electron beam will be used to investigate the heating of small volumes (~5 to 10 cm3) of dense plasma (1017-- 1018 electrons/cm3) to kilovolt temperatures via the electrostatic two-stream instability.
Investigation of Interaction of an Electron Beam with a Plasma

Book Description
Experimental results are presented for the heating of a 4 m long plasma confined by a uniform magnetic field of 4-5 kG by an intense relativistic electron beam. The initial plasma density ranged from approximately 5 x 10 to the 13th power cu cm to approximately 3 x 10 to the 15th power cu cm, the lower density cases being partially ionized and the higher density cases highly ionized. In all cases, the energy coupled from the beam to the plasma is greater than can be explained by binary collisions between beam electrons and the plasma particles. Over most of the density range tested, 5 x 10 to the 13th power cu cm to 1.5 x 10 to the 15th power cu cm the plasma heating cannot be explained by classical processes. These results are found to be explained quantitatively by the use of a full nonlinear treatment of the electron-electron two stream instability in the kinetic regime. A review of beam plasma interaction theory and previous experiments is presented to facilitate comparison with the present results.
