Title: Physics of Nonneutral Plasmas
Description: The course provides a comprehensive introduction to the physics of nonneutral plasmas and charged particle beam systems with intense self fields. The subject matter is developed systematically from first principles. Topics include: nonlinear stability and confinement theorems; collective waves and instabilities; phase transitions in strongly-coupled nonneutral plasmas; coherent electromagnetic radiation generation; nonlinear processes in high-intensity periodic-focussing accelerators; and concepts for compact, plasma-based accelerators.
