This indispensable work offers a broad synoptic description of beams, applicable to a wide
range of other devices, such as low-energy focusing and transport systems and high-power …

A nonneutral plasma is a many-body collection of charged particles in which there is not
overall charge neutrality. The diverse areas of application of nonneutral plasmas include …

Physics of Intense Charged Particle Beams in High Energy Accelerators is a graduate-level
text—complete with 75 assigned problems—which covers a broad range of topics related to …

Self-consistent Vlasov-Poisson simulations of beams with high space-charge intensity often
require specification of initial phase-space distributions that reflect properties of a beam that …

This book summarizes the experience of many years of teamwork with my group, the beam
diagnostics group of GSI. For a long time the group was also responsible for operating the …

This paper presents a survey of the present theoretical understanding of collective
processes and beam-plasma interactions affecting intense heavy ion beam propagation in …

An equation is presented for continuous beams with azimuthal symmetry and continuous
linear focusing, which expresses a relationship between the rate of change for squared rms …

A code library BEAMPATH for 2D and 3D space charge dominated beam dynamics study in
linear particle accelerators and beam transport lines is developed. The program is used for …

It is shown that beam self-field effects induce nonlinear resonances and chaotic behavior in
the envelope oscillations of an intense charged-particle beam propagating through a …

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 …
