Abstract

Self-similarity conditions are determined for the steady states of a quasineutral beam plasma generated during the transport of ion beams in a gaseous medium. The self-consistent radial distribution of the beam and plasma densities is taken into account. Under the resulting conditions the radial electric field of the beam-plasma system is linear, and it is possible for beams to be transported without nonlinear distortion of their phase response characteristics or an increase in the effective emittance.
