Particle-core interaction is the well-developed model of halo formation in high-intensity beams. In present paper an analytical solution for averaged single particle dynamics around uniformly charged beam core is obtained. The problem is…
We discuss and compare several geometric structures which imply an upper bound to the acceleration of a particle measured in its rest system. While all of them have the same implications on the motion of a point particle, they differ in…
