Abstract
The possibility of using picosecond high-current relativistic electron beams for the formation of tubular rotating relativistic electron rings is investigated. Longitudinal compression of a tubular beam in a cusp is simulated numerically disregarding the space charge effects. The behavior of the characteristics of a compressed beam, which determines the tolerances in the initial parameters and magnetic system parameters, is investigated.
