Abstract
The Beam Equilibrium Stability and Transport (BEST) code, a 3D multispecies nonlinear perturbative particle simulation code, has been developed to study collective effects in intense charged particle beams described self-consistently by the Vlasov-Maxwell equations. This code provides an effective numerical tool to investigate collective instabilities, periodically-focused beam propagation in alternating-gradient focusing fields, halo formation, and other important nonlinear process in intense beam propagation.
