Equation for the envelope of a relativistic electron beam propagating in a resistive plasma channel during the evolution of resistive hose instability

Resumo

Kinetic methods are used to derive the transport equations, virial equation, dynamic equilibrium condition, and the equation of the envelope of an axially symmetric paraxial relativistic electron beam propagating in an Ohmic plasma channel during the evolution of resistive firehose instability. The equation of the beam envelope is generalized by taking this instability into account.
