Emittance growth and halo formation in the relaxation of mismatched beams

In this paper, a simplified theoretical model that allows prediction of the final stationary state attained by an initially mismatched beam is presented. The proposed stationary state has a core-halo distribution. Based on the incompressibility of the Vlasov phase-space dynamics, the core behaves as...
