A warm-fluid equilibrium theory is presented which describes a new thermal rigid-rotor equilibrium of a charged particle beam in a periodic solenoidal focusing field. Warm-fluid equations are solved in the paraxial approximation. The rms beam envelope and self-consistent Poisson equations are derived. Density profiles are calculated numerically for high-intensity beams. Temperature effects in such beams are investigated.
