Stable transport of relativistic electron beams in plasmas

Abstract: The long-distance stable transport of relativistic electron beams (REBs) in plasmas is studied by full three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations. Theoretical analysis shows that the beam transport is mainly influenced by three transverse instabilities, where the excitation of self-modulation instability, and the suppression of the filamentation instability and the hosing instability are important to realize the beam stable transport. By modulating the transport parameters such as the electron density rati… Show more

“…High‐energy electron beams are better adapted to suppress the transverse expansion because of their own space charge effect and generate a smaller proportion of energy loss when propagating in the ionosphere due to their smaller collision cross section with background particles (Marshall & Bortnik, 2018). These factors make relativistic electron beams a better option for long‐range propagation missions of several hundred kilometers (Hao, Wang, et al., 2021, Hao et al., 2022; B. X. Xue et al., 2020, 2021; Yao et al., 2022). Diagnostics of the electron beam are also important aspects of electron beam sounding experiments (Clilverd, et al., 2017; Delzanno et al., 2016).…”

“…The efficiency of electron beam propagation may be reduced by all the physical mechanisms mentioned above. Different viewpoints on the long-range propagation of electron beams in the atmosphere have been reviewed [19][20][21], and a theoretical approach to increase the efficiency of long-range propagation utilizing the same direction geomagnetic field and ion focused region has also been investigated [22][23][24].…”
