OSTI ID:6233294
An instability of a relativistic electron beam in a plasma has been observed. This instability occurs in a time shorter than the scale time for changes in the magnetic field, tau/sub d/ = 4..pi..sigmaa/sup 2//c/sup 2/, and results in a displacement of the beam as a whole to the side wall of the drift chamber.
