Analytical theory and nonlinear δf perturbative simulations of temperature anisotropy instability in intense charged particle beams
In plasmas with strongly anisotropic distribution functions (T_{∥b}/T_{⊥b}≪1) a Harris-like collective instability may develop if there is sufficient coupling between the transverse and longitudinal degrees of freedom. Such anisotropies develop naturally in accelerators and may lead to a deteriorati...
