In polarized proton operation in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) coherent beam-beam modes are routinely observed with beam transfer function measurements. These modes can become unstable under external excitation or in the…
Electrically charged systems bound by a strong gravitational force can sustain a huge amount of electric charge (up to 10^20C) against Coulomb repulsion. General relativistically such systems form a stable hydrostatic configuration both in…
Coulomb fields of charged particle beams in circular machines determine, together with wake fields, modes of the collective beam oscillations, both for transverse and longitudinal degrees of freedom. Recent progress in these two areas of…
