Microscopic kinetic analysis of space-charge induced optical microbunching in a relativistic electron beam
Longitudinal space-charge forces from density fluctuations generated by shot noise can be a major source of microbunching instability in relativistic high brightness electron beams. The gain in microbunching due to this effect is broadband, extending at least up to optical frequencies, where the ind...
