Contrary to a prevailing assumption that black holes would swiftly discharge, we argue that black holes can charge preferentially when boosted through an ambient magnetic field. Though the details are very different, the preference for…
In the Large Hadron Collider, electron clouds have been observed to cause slow beam degradation in the form of beam lifetime reduction and slow emittance growth. We present a method for the simulation of such slow effects with arbitrarily…
Interaction between the bunches in the NLC main linac via long range wakefields can cause a beam breakup instability. Although the magnitude of the long range wakefields for an ideal NLC structure is below the instability threshold, the…

Intrabeam scattering refers to the effects of the Coulomb interaction acting between pairs of charged particles within a bunch in an accelerator. One of the main consequences of intrabeam scattering is a change in the emittances of a bunch:…
Analysis of space-charge effects on electron emission typically makes some assumption of continuity and smoothness, whether this is continuity of charge as in the classical derivation of the Child-Langmuir current, or the mean-field…
Space charge has been a limiting factor for low energy accelerators inducing emittance growth and tune spread. Tune shift and tune spread parameters are important for avoiding resonances, which limit intensity of the beam. Circular modes…
