Hamiltonian formalism for solving the Vlasov-Poisson equations and its applications to periodic focusing systems and coherent beam-beam interaction
A Hamiltonian approach to the solution of the Vlasov-Poisson equations has been developed. Based on a nonlinear canonical transformation, the rapidly oscillating terms in the original Hamiltonian are transformed away, yielding a new Hamiltonian that contains slowly varying terms only. The formalism...
