title = "Nonlinear effects of beam-plasma instabilities on neutralized propagation of intense ion beams in background plasma",
abstract = "The streaming of an intense ion beam relative to the background plasma can cause the development of fast electrostatic collective instabilities. In this paper we examine numerically the defocusing effects of two-stream instability on the ion beam propagating in neutralizing background plasma. The scaling laws for the average de-focusing forces on the beam ions are identified, and confirmed by comparison with numerical simulations. These scalings can be used in the development of realistic ion beam compression scenarios in present and next-generation ion-beam-driven experiments.",
