Abstract
The nonlinear stage in the development of a resistive hose instability of a highcurrent relativistic electron beam in a finite-conductivity plasma has been studied in the rigid-beam model. The attenuation of the force of the interaction of the beam with the magnetic field of the total current for large beam displacements is shown to result in the stabilization of the instability. The stabilization time and the amplitudes of the oscillations in the saturation regime are determined as functions of the parameters of the beam in the plasma.
