Relativistic Beam Plasma Instability in Strong Magnetic Field
Author: Instabilities of Relativistic Electron Beam in Plasma
Author: Valery B. KrasovitskiiPublisher: Nova Publishers
ISBN: 9781600215155
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
This book is devoted to the non-linear theory of the collective interaction between a modulated beam of relativistic charged particles and narrow electromagnetic and Langmuir wave packets in plasma or gas slow-wave systems. Regular oscillations excited by a relativistic beam under the conditions of Cherenkov resonance and the anomalous Doppler effect can be used to generate coherent microwave radiation and accelerate charged particles in plasma.

Book Description
In this review we shall discuss the possibilities of using high power relativistic electron beam for plasma heating In open systems. We shall consider the following three groups of questions: 1. Beam transport in a vacuum in a strong magnetic field, equilibrium, stability, and critical beam currents in vacuum; 2. Beam transport in plasma, charge and current neutralization of the beam; plasma heating by a reverse current, macroscopic beam instabilities in plasma; and 3. Theory of collective beam relaxation in plasma, including quasi-linear and nonlinear relaxation models; the role of plasma instability; macroscopic affects during beam relaxation. The review encompasses results published up to September 1973.
Handbook on Plasma Instabilities

ISBN: 148327098X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 575
Book Description
Handbook on Plasma Instabilities, Volume 2 consists of four chapters on plasma instabilities. Chapter 14 discusses the various aspects of microinstabilities. Beam-plasma systems are covered in Chapter 15, while the various stabilization methods are presented in Chapter 16. This book concludes with deliberations on parametric effects in Chapter 17. Other topics discussed include the microinstabilities of a homogeneous unmagnetized plasma; kinetic theory of macroscopic instabilities; basic beam physics; and beam-plasma instabilities. The magnetic field configuration stabilization; macroscopic nonmagnetic stabilization methods; parametric instabilities in homogeneous unmagnetized plasmas; and parametric effects in bounded and inhomogeneous plasmas are also elaborated in this text. This publication is beneficial to students and researchers conducting work on unstable plasma.
Frontiers in High Energy Density Physics
Author: National Research CouncilPublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 030908637X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
Recent scientific and technical advances have made it possible to create matter in the laboratory under conditions relevant to astrophysical systems such as supernovae and black holes. These advances will also benefit inertial confinement fusion research and the nation's nuclear weapon's program. The report describes the major research facilities on which such high energy density conditions can be achieved and lists a number of key scientific questions about high energy density physics that can be addressed by this research. Several recommendations are presented that would facilitate the development of a comprehensive strategy for realizing these research opportunities.

Diocotron Instability of an Intense Relativistic Electron Beam in an Accelerator

Book Description
High current annular electron beam in an accelerator is subject to various instabilities. A general fluid-Maxwell theory of the diocotron instability is developed for an infinitely long and azimuthally symmetric annular electron beam propagating along an external magnetic field. In contrast with the treatment used in the conventional diocotron instability, the assumptions of tenuous electron beam and strong magnetic field have been eliminated. Furthermore, the restriction of infinite axial wavelength perturbation has been removed and the approximation of % ck is no longer applied. Instead, we conduct full electromagnetic perturbation in the macroscopic cold fluid description of plasma dynamic with the beam parameters of general interest. In the special case of a sharp boundary density profile, the diocotron instability which dominates in the low frequency. region are investigated in a broad range of beam parameters and geometries. The results are significantly different from that obtained from the conventional diocotron instability. The kink mode can be destablizied and the growth rates are much larger for every azimuthal mode.
