Interim Scientific Report on Virtual Cathode Oscillations.

Abstract

During this period, the single investigator produced two papers with titles, Effects of Thermal Spread on the Space Charge Limit of an Electron Beam, and The Aging of Nuclei in a Binary Mixture. In progress is a paper dealing with the cascade of bifurcations due to delay effects related to the two stream model for virtual cathode formation in its simplest form. A paper, Kapitza-Dirac Scattering, is being written for publication. This report summarizes progress made under the grant during the specified period. (Author)
