A new thermal rigid-rotor Vlasov equilibrium is obtained for an intense, axisymmetric charged-particle beam with nonuniform thermal density in the radial direction propagating through a periodic solenoidal focusing field. The thermal beam distribution function is constructed and the beam envelope equation is derived, and examples of periodically focused rigid-rotor thermal equilibria are presented. Statistical properties and possible applications of the present beam equilibrium are discussed.
