where L is the length of the drift space. The impulse can also be expressed as a change in the divergence angle, given nonrelativistically in the paraxial approximation by We present a simple analytical model of emittance growth caused by nonlinear space-charge forces using a qExL mv2 'laminar, parabolic-density beam. The model allows us to explain a surprising and important result that space-chargeinduced emittance growth is larger in the plane with the larger semi-axis.where m is the mass of the beam particles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
