Abstract

Filamentation instability for a rotating light ion beam (LIB) fusion system is investigated. Stability conditions, including the effects of fractional current neutralization, rotation of LIB and beam temperature, are derived for propagation through a background plasma. The results are illustrated by plotting stability boundaries for a rotating proton beam propagating in a plasma.
