Stochastic phenomena occurring within charged particle beams can be handled using the
Vlasov-Fokker-Planck generalization of the Vlasov equation. In particular, this …

Emittance growth in bunched charged particle beams in linear accelerators is considered in
the case of a Hamiltonian system where nonlinear and time-dependent forces are dominant …

The Vlasov equation embodies the smooth field approximation of the self-consistent
equation of motion for charged particle beams. This framework is fundamentally altered if we …

The numerical noise inherent to particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation of 3d anisotropic high
intensity bunched beams in periodic focusing is compared with the analytical model by …

We investigate temperature relaxation processes in bunched and coasting ion beams at
high phase-space densities using the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation technique. A …

Beam halo formation issues are important for the design of high current linear ion
accelerators. Various mechanisms can potentially cause beam halo. Some recent studies …

Beam halos are formed via self-consistent motion of the beam particles. Interactions of
single particles with time-varying density distributions of other particles are a major source of …

In this letter, a phase transition of a non-equilibrated single component plasma evolving
within a uniform constant magnetic field is demonstrated for the first time. We present …

The connection between entropy growth and rms emittance growth in linear accelerators is
studied. Emittance growth is divided into two classes: reversible and irreversible depending …

High-resolution single-shot nonrelativistic ultrafast electron microscopy (UEM) relies on
adaptive optics to compress high-intensity bunches using radio frequency (RF) cavities. We …
