Description

An important application of an Intense Relativistic Electron Beam (IREB) is to heat a fusion target. The mechanism of heating and the anomalous effect in the interaction of IREB with fusion target plasma are investigated. With the collisionless model, the two stream instability growth rate is obtained by using Vlasov equation. Furthermore, with the collision effect taking into account the growth rate with collision correction is obtained. The critical condition for two stream instability is given, and the problem of energy transform between IREB and target plasma is discussed
