On the Propagation of High Intensity, High Voltage Electron Beams and the Maximum Current Which Such Beams May Possess.
Abstract
The existing theories for the propagation of intense electron beams at relativistic energies and the experimental results so far obtained are reviewed. A phenomenological description of beam propagation is given and an expression for the maximum current that a beam may possess is derived. This expression is somewhat different from the Alfven limit but reduces to this limit in the case of a fully neutralized beam. (Author)
