Abstract:

The paper discusses the interaction of a beam of charged particles with an electron plasma. It is shown that the state of the beam, which is characterized by constant and uniform speed and density, turns out to be unstable. If such a beam goes into a plasma fluctuations in density and speed are formed in it and these are propagated in the form of a wave with increasing amplitude. The longitudinal field connected with it also has the character of a wave with increasing amplitude. Author
