Charged particle beams that are not perfectly matched or centered when injected into a focusing channel (or accelerator) have a higher total transverse energy than the equivalent …
The theory and simulation of coherent resonant coupling due to space charge in coasting or bunched anisotropic equilibrium beams is presented. Our work confirms that analytical …
