Beam Propagation Experimental Study.
Abstract
A program of extensively diagnosed experiments to investigate the physics of intense relativistic electron beam propagation in air has been performed using beam generators at the Air Force Weapons Laboratory. The primary objectives of his research were to measure the rate of erosion of the head of the beam, and to investigate resistive instabilities, such as the hose and hollowing modes, that limit the transport of beam energy over significant distances.
