Studies of the Longitudinal Instability with an Electron Beam. Technical progress report, February 1--August 31, 1993
In the last six months our main research effort has continued the study of generation, propagation, and edge reflection/transmission of localized perturbations in space-charge dominated electron beams. In addition, we performed the measurement of the geometry factor g of a coasting beam in a periodic focusing channel. The experiments were performed with our short-pulse electron beam injector and the 5-m long periodic solenoid focusing channel. This study has produced very interesting, unexpected results which concern the fundamental beam physics. A brief report on the generation of space-charge waves in the form of localized perturbations, on the measurement of the geometry factor g, and on the beam edge effect on space-charge waves is given.
